I'd been wondering if we shouldn't add support for this as well,
but since it was associated with the freedesktop.org (GUI)
project, I wasn't sure it was applicable to Mutt.
I looked into what policy Debian and Fedora have, and Debian does
encourage all upstream software to adopt the XDG [1].
Debian/Ubuntu has a libxdg-basedir package that is much more
involved, and perhaps overkill (the attached patch is very
simple).

So I think this patch should be applied.
