[PATCH v2 2/5] virtiofsd: create lock/pid file in per user cache dir

[Vivek Goyal]

Right now we create lock/pid file in /usr/local/var/... and unprivliged
user does not have access to create files there.

Hence, in unprivileged mode, create this file in per user cache dir
as specified by environment variable XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
