{{/*
Source-root init template. `chezmoi init` renders this to
~/.config/chezmoi/chezmoi.toml before any `apply` runs, seeding `.xdg.*` so
templates that reference it (e.g. dot_config/wget/wgetrc.tmpl) resolve on the
very first apply. On subsequent applies, the managed
dot_config/chezmoi/private_chezmoi.toml.tmpl overwrites this file with the full
config (adds [diff] and [merge]) — intentionally narrow here so the init
template does only what init can't defer.

Cross-platform: XDG_* wins when set (Linux, or macOS users who export it); else
falls back to XDG-spec defaults under $HOME (typical macOS).
