FS#958 - do not write random files to the user's home directory

> @Elias: the problem of multiple writers to the same file is pretty much orthogonal to the question of the location of the file.

@Joe: Not at all. Because of the autogen phase it is not currently possible to run multiple instances of dunecontrol on the same source (the phases after that only affect the directory given through --builddir but the autogen phase does not). It is possible to run multiple instances of dunecontrol if you have multiple source trees, however. If dunecontrol now records a global state that is in no way tied to the invocation (e.g. through a PID), that becomes a problem, solely because of the location of the file.
