util: specify a not empty pause dir for root too

commit b3014c1 changed
GetRootlessRuntimeDir() to return an empty string for root, so that
its value is not exported as XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, and other programs like
crun can use a better default.

Now GetRootlessPauseProcessPidPath() uses homedir.GetRuntimeDir().
The homedir.GetRuntimeDir() function returns a value also when running
as root so it can be used inside a nested Podman.

Closes: #22327
