This is meant to support older installs that placed the netrc at the relevant XDG path rather than in /nix.

I kinda wonder about this... I think we probably need two separate functions: one for when we're getting a path-to-write-to (i.e. the user running fh login without determinate-nixd running), and one for when we're getting a path-to-read-from.

In the write-to one, it would take into account if determinate-nixd is running and return None if it is (since it won't write to a file, but will instead tell the daemon) and Some(xdg-path) if it's not.

In the read-from one, it would return netrcnotfound if the determinate and normal netrc files are not found.

What's the canonical way to determine if dnixd is running?

I think the dnixd_uds function is a good starting point, but basically request to http://localhost/info and see if it responds with 200.

@cole-h What action do we take if the write-to path is None?

I imagine that case is only reachable when we're using dnixd, so we just wouldn't write a file and tell the daemon to use this token the same way we do it already.

As far as I can tell, this work is not in any way in sync with the current state of dnixd 😄
