llpp.diff

Filing in the category of 'spooky action at a distance'.  This
one is related to bug #199872 where Firefox would randomly crash
when exiting llpp (sometimes yes and sometimes no, you don't know which
beforehand).

I'm tired of rolling the dice every time I close a PDF file.  I found a
workaround to fix this that I explain like this: Firefox (or GTK+ apps in
general) seems to monitor ~/.config (not sure if true).  llpp writes to
~/.config/llpp.conf when it exits, which will trigger bug #199872.

This patch moves llpp's config file to ~/.llpp.conf instead, solving
this annoyance.

Poudriere testport FreeBSD 10.3/amd64 ok, portlint ok
