please conform to the xdg base directory specification



The XDG base directory specification[1][2] says that configuration files should 
go in ~/.config/$APPNAME. I know that it's possible to change $ZDOTDIR in /etc 
but this would break the zsh configuration for all users that have not moved 
their config files. So zsh would need to check both $HOME and $HOME/.config/zsh 
for configuration files.
