fix: proper XDG base dir support using rc9

[computed-fn]

🔗 Linked issue

resolves #464

📚 Description

Change the API used to get user config

[danielroe]

will this still support ~/.nuxtrc (ie backwards compatibility)?

[computed-fn]

Ohh right, I forgot about that

[computed-fn]

I think it should be backward compatible now. Just need to add the new config read is all instead of replacing the old one

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI checks both legacy and XDG-based user configuration locations for disabled telemetry and uses updateUserConfig for global telemetry settings. The Nuxt rc helper resolves and creates the XDG configuration directory before updating .nuxtrc.

report the config path using the same XDG-aware base directory as
readUserConfig({ name: RC_FILENAME }). Replace the homedir-based resolve with
the existing configuration-directory resolution used by rc9, while preserving
the current message format and RC_FILENAME usage.

182-182: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Create the XDG directory before the global rc9 write.

At src/cli.ts:182, rc.updateUserConfig(update, RC_FILENAME) resolves to ~/.config/.nuxtrc by default, and rc9’s write path does not create parent directories, so a first-time global enable/disable/consent can fail with ENOENT. Reuse the same mkdirSync(rc9Base, { recursive: true }) pattern already used by src/utils/nuxtrc.ts before calling rc.updateUserConfig.

creation occurs before rc.updateUserConfig(update, RC_FILENAME) for first-time
