Subject: [PATCH] path-lookup: don't make ~/.local/share/systemd/user a symlink

We already encourage upstreams to keep the default configuration
separate from user customizations for software that is installed in
the system location. Let's allow that separation also for software
that is installed in the home directory.

Some discussion:

(cherry picked from commit 667a1cd645c9402921dedff08a86bb35cddbcbf9)
