* Compatibility with GHC 9.0
* Improve handling of XDG directories.
1. If all three of xmonad's environment variables (`XMONAD_DATA_DIR,`
`XMONAD_CONFIG_DIR`, and `XMONAD_CACHE_DIR`) are set, use them.
2. If there is a build script called `build` (see [here](https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad-testing/tree/master/build-scripts) for usage
examples) or configuration `xmonad.hs` in `~/.xmonad`, set all three
directories to `~/.xmonad`.
3. Otherwise, use the `xmonad` directory in `XDG_DATA_HOME`,
`XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, and `XDG_CACHE_HOME` (or their respective
fallbacks). These directories are created if necessary.
In the cases of 1. and 3., the build script or executable is
expected to be in the config dir.
