feat: mount under \$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/sshfs/ instead of ~/Servers/

Aligns with XDG Base Directory spec: $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is the defined
location for non-essential runtime files (ephemeral, user-owned,
session-scoped). sshfs mounts fit that definition exactly, and the
tmpfs backing means orphaned mountpoint dirs vanish on logout instead
of accumulating.

- verify_mount_dir reads $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, falls back to
  /run/user/<uid>/ via os.Getuid().
- Existing path-traversal guard and symlink rejection carry over
  unchanged.
- Tests switched from t.Setenv("HOME") to t.Setenv("XDG_RUNTIME_DIR").

File-manager sidebar visibility is unaffected — gvfs surfaces FUSE
mounts via /proc/mounts regardless of mountpoint location.

 # Decisions
 
+## 2026-04-28 – Move mount base from `~/Servers/` to `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/sshfs/`
+- **Who**: Dom, ClaudeCode
+- **Why**: `~/Servers/` is non-standard. XDG Base Directory spec defines
+  `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` (= `/run/user/<uid>/`) for "non-essential runtime files"
+  — ephemeral, user-owned, session-bezogen. sshfs mounts fit that definition
+  exactly. systemd-logind creates the directory at login with mode 0700, so
+  permissions are correct by construction.
+- **Tradeoffs**:
+  - Filemanager sidebar visibility is unchanged — gvfs surfaces FUSE mounts
+    via `/proc/mounts` regardless of mountpoint location.
+  - Tab-completion in `~/` no longer reaches mounts; users targeting the
+    mount via shell need the explicit `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/sshfs/<alias>` path.
+    Acceptable given Dom's primary access is the filemanager sidebar.
+  - tmpfs-backed → mounts and their containing dir vanish on logout/reboot.
+    No more orphaned empty dirs. Tradeoff: bookmarks pinned to the absolute
+    path stay valid because UID is stable across sessions, but the directory
+    is gone between logins until the next mount recreates it.
+  - Fallback to `/run/user/<uid>/` when `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` is unset (e.g.
+    cron, non-login shells without systemd-logind). Falls auf einem System
+    ohne systemd `/run/user/<uid>/` nicht existiert, schlägt `MkdirAll` mit
+    klarem Fehler fehl — kein Silent-Fallback auf `~/Servers/`.
+- **How**:
+  - `verify_mount_dir` reads `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`, falls back to
+    `/run/user/<uid>/` via `os.Getuid()` + `strconv.Itoa`.
+  - Base = `<runtime>/sshfs`, created with `MkdirAll(0700)`.
+  - Existing path-traversal guard (`EvalSymlinks` + `HasPrefix`) and symlink
+    rejection (`Lstat`) carry over unchanged.
+  - Tests switched from `t.Setenv("HOME", ...)` to
+    `t.Setenv("XDG_RUNTIME_DIR", ...)`.

 ## 2026-04-28 – Use ssh_config alias as label for mountpoint and sshfs source

 Quickly mount remote systems via SSHFS based on your ssh_config
 
-Static mount dir is currently `~/Servers/<Host>` (uses the ssh_config alias as label, not the resolved IP).
+Mounts land under `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/sshfs/<Host>` (typically `/run/user/$UID/sshfs/<Host>`), using the ssh_config alias as label, not the resolved IP. The directory is auto-cleaned on logout (tmpfs).
