[Bug 1772602] [NEW] files install to home directory instead of boinc subdirectory of home

[Jonathan Brier]

Public bug reported:

The command sudo apt install boinc results in multiple files installing
to ~/ instead of ~/boinc/. This creates a mess in the home directory and
makes cleanup less clean. Installing to ~/boinc/ would make cleanup
instructions simple and straightforward.

/home/usersname/all_projects_list.xml
/home/usersname/client_state_prev.xml
/home/usersname/daily_xfer_history.xml
/home/usersname/gui_rpc_auth.cfg
/home/usersname/client_state.xml

Last tested with Pop!_OS 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Expected behavior are these files install in a subdirectory of home at
~/boinc/all_projects_list.xml and so on.
