Uses QStandardPaths to get cache, data and config XDG folders. The config file go to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/hydrogen/hydrogen.conf The cache folder go to $XDG_CACHE_HOME/hydrogen/ And all the data subfolders (drumkits, plugins, playlists, etc.) go to $XDG_DATA_HOME/hydrogen/ along with the hydrogen.log file. If old folder (~/.hydrogen/) is found, use that instead of the XDG paths. The __usr_*_paths are setted outside a function, so QStandardPaths isn't avaliable to get the XDG paths. Also no APPNAME is avaliable until setApplicationName() is called after the Filesystem::check_usr_paths() is used. To avoid this update_usr_paths() is added at the begining of check_usr_paths() to update the correct values from QStandardPaths.

Fix #643. Uses QStandardPaths to get cache, data and config XDG folders only on Linux. If old folder (e.g.
~/.hydrogen/) is found, use that instead of the XDG paths. If no folder is found, create the XDG dirs.According to https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstandardpaths.html this should be the default paths returned by QStandardPaths (Follow the ENV paths configured by the user):
