Copied from ActiveState/appdirs#156:

The XDG specification includes $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for user-specific runtime files that should be cleaned up on reboot. It would be nice if platformdirs supported this with a user_runtime_dir function that checks this environment variable and falls back to a default like tempfile.gettempdir.

Sounds good to me. Would you be willing to send a PR?
