Nuxt.js: support $XDG_CONFIG_HOME for `.nuxtrc`

[Siilwyn]

It would be great if Nuxt.js follows the XDG Base Directory Specification. Instead of placing the file .nuxtrc in the home directory it should be placed in the OS specific appropriate directory. Getting the correct directory is easy with a module like env-paths.

This, among other things, allows a user to specify a directory in which they want all applications to look for their user configurable setting files and keep their home directory clean. Though I'm not sure if this is really a config file, the telemetry seed is not something to expect in a dotfile... Perhaps it's appropriate in the cache directory.

What is Expected?

The .nuxtrc file is saved in the appropriate OS directory.

What is actually happening?

The .nuxtrc file is saved in home.
