[aquaria] What about using Freedesktop config-spec ? (Patch included)

[Julien Humbert]

Hello everyone !

Aquaria uses ATM the « ~/.Aquaria » config directory, and I think it
is a bad practice. $HOME is cluttered with many « ~/.something » files
and dirs. Freedesktop has a spec for this. Apps should use « ~/.config
» for user config files and « ~/.local/share » for user data.

So I tryed to patch my Aquaria (using latest hg) and I included here
the result of « hg diff ».

Do you think it is ok to use this spec ? Is it well written ? Have I
not introduced a bug ?
Comments are welcome. ;)

Regards
Julien Humbert
