README for pam_xdg

This is a module for PAM that handles the XDG Base Directory
Specification[1] directories, including lifetime management
of XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and injection of according environment variables
into the user session.

For it to work it must be included in /etc/pam.d -- to make it a
vivid part of session handling the file /etc/pam.d/common-session
seems best.  Include the following early:

	session optional pam_xdg.so [notroot] [runtime]

Use notroot argument to only handle XDG for non-root users.
Use runtime argument to only handle of XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
