It no longer tries to create or access .idlerc or any files within.
Users must run IDLE to discover problems with saving settings.

Writing 'recent-files.lst' instead of "$HOME/.idlerc/recent-files.lst" resulted in a new ENV CHANGED failure -- on linux only.
@vstinner Is there documentation on what changes cause a failure?

New patch should prevent writing that file.
