ddxLoad: Check XDG_RUNTIME_DIR before fallback to /tmp/
The XKM_OUTPUT_DIR folder by default is defined as ${datadir}/X11/xkb/compiled
and it is usually defined as /var/lib/xkb or %{_localstatedir}/lib/xkb by
distributions. If X is executed as non-root it won't have permissions to write
into that folder. If we fallback directly to /tmp we might get name collisions:
```
> Error: Cannot open "/tmp/server-10.xkm" to write keyboard description
> Exiting
```
Where the file /tmp/server-10.xkm already exists but is owned by another user
that previously executed X and had the display number 10. This is specially
problematic when exeuting Xvfb.
Before falling back to /tmp/ check first the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
