Using a tempdir for the Glean data directory has been useful for tests. However, it is not a very good default, because it will surprisingly not retain data across runs of the application unless the application developer knows to pass in a directory.

We will probably want this to be always overridable, since different apps will have different requirements, but a better default might be appdirs user_data_dir.

Whiteboard: [telemetry:glean-rs:m?] → [telemetry:glean-rs:m13]

Because this bug's Severity has not been changed from the default since it was filed, and it's Priority is P3 (Backlog,) indicating it has been triaged, the bug's Severity is being updated to S3 (normal.)
