bug#61014: 29.0.60; flymake-mode stderr warning is confusing when edit t


From: Eason Huang
Subject: bug#61014: 29.0.60; flymake-mode stderr warning is confusing when edit the init.el or eary-init.el
Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2023 10:15:49 +0800

I found that when editing the init.el or eary-ini.el under
`user-emacs-directory`, flymake will report the warning as below:

```
Warning (initialization): Your `load-path' seems to contain
your `.emacs.d' directory: /Users/eason/.emacs.d/
This is likely to cause problems...
Consider using a subdirectory instead, e.g.: /Users/eason/.emacs.d/lisp
```

And this is because the variable `elisp-flymake-byte-compile-load-path`
has a defaut value `("./")`

so flymake adding the `.emacs.d` to the load-path and then also
complaining about it, it is confusing to users. May be we can improve
it.

Steps to reproduce:

1. create a new .emacs.d folder in the HOME directory
2. create an empty init.e and eary-init.el file in the .emacs.d folder
3. Start Emacs and C-x, C-f open the init.el or early.el
4. M-x flymake-mode, add some blank lines in the init.el or early.el
5. C-x b, Switch to buffer:  *stderr of elisp-flymake-byte-compile*
Now you will see the warnings.


By the way, the message "Your `load-path' seems to contain
your `.emacs.d' directory" should use `user-emacs-directory` instead,
because some user will use `~/.config/emacs/` folder instead of
`.emacs.d`
