bug#52808: Guix home should not assume that all targets are dot files

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi Andrew,

Andrew Tropin <andrew@trop.in> skribis:

> Those patches introduce a breaking change, but the surface and number of

> xdg-configuration-files.  It removes the special handling of dot files
> in symlink-manager and doesn't add a leading dot automatically.

> Please, merge them on April 8.
