mpd: use XDG music dir if XDG user dirs are enabled
If the user has enabled the XDG user directories module then we can
use the XDG music directory in the MPD module. Otherwise we'll leave
the option undefined so that the user is forced to define the
directory to use.

This applies to state version 22.11 and above.

Fixes #3225

== Release 22.11
This is the current unstable branch and the information in this section is therefore not final.
[[sec-release-22.11-highlights]]
=== Highlights
This release has the following notable changes:
* The <<opt-home.stateVersion>> option no longer has a default value.
It used to default to ``18.09'', which was the Home Manager version
that introduced the option. If your configuration does not explicitly
set this option then you need to add
+
[source,nix]
home.stateVersion = "18.09";
+
to your configuration.
* The Flake function `homeManagerConfiguration` has been simplified.
Specifically, the arguments
+
--
- `configuration`,
- `username`,
- `homeDirectory`,
- `stateVersion`,
- `extraModules`, and
- `system`
--
+
have been removed. Instead use the new `modules` argument, which
accepts a list of NixOS modules.
+
Further, the `pkgs` argument is now mandatory and should be set to
`nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system}` where `nixpkgs` is the Nixpkgs
input of your choice.
+
For example, if your Flake currently contains
+
[source,nix]
----
homeManagerConfiguration {
configuration = import ./home.nix;
system = "x86_64-linux";
username = "jdoe";
homeDirectory = "/home/jdoe";
stateVersion = "22.05";
extraModules = [ ./some-extra-module.nix ];
}
----
+
then you can change it to
+
[source,nix]
----
homeManagerConfiguration {
pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};
modules = [
./home.nix
./some-extra-module.nix
{
home = {
username = "jdoe";
homeDirectory = "/home/jdoe";
stateVersion = "22.05";
};
}
];
}
----
+
Of course, you can move the assignment of <<opt-home.username>>,
<<opt-home.homeDirectory>>, and <<opt-home.stateVersion>> to some
other file or simply place them in your `home.nix`.
* The `services.picom` module has been refactored to use structural
settings.
+
As a result `services.picom.extraOptions` has been removed in favor of
<<opt-services.picom.settings>>. Also, `services.picom.blur*` were
removed since upstream changed the blur settings to be more flexible.
You can migrate the blur settings to use
<<opt-services.picom.settings>> instead.
* The `services.compton` module has been removed. It was deprecated in
release 20.03. Use `services.picom` instead.
[[sec-release-22.11-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below.
These changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to "22.11" or later.
* The <<opt-services.mpd.musicDirectory>> option now defaults to the
value of <<opt-xdg.userDirs.music>> if <<opt-xdg.userDirs.enable>> is
enabled. Otherwise it is undefined and must be specified in the user
configuration.
