profiles: blacklist i3 IPC socket & dir except for i3 itself (#6361)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This closes the escape route discussed in #6357.

It's left open for i3's own profile, so that people who run i3 itself
sandboxed still have the option to use IPC with it at all.
