* features: disable refresh-app-awarness by default again
We enabled the `experimental.refresh-app-awareness` option right
before the 22.04 release [1]. However in hindsight this move was
premature. The UX is not quite ready, the refresh is stopped
but the experience should be that once the app is closed the
update gets applied which is not implemented yet. There are
also design issues with e.g. LXD as outlined in LP:#1978005
the need time and design to resolve. Another reason was the
automatic ~/snap -> ~/Snap folder migration. But this is
done differently now.
For the above reasons this commit changes the default again
to `refresh-app-awarness=false` until there is time to
fix the UX and the LXD issues.

We agreed to enable this feature after a release a long while ago and
forgot about this entirely. This should improve compatibility of some
snaps that use classic confinement, as $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR will no longer
be altered, allowing unmodified binaries to find sockets and other
resources there.

This new feature flag will control the location of the per-user snap
data root. When the flag is unset, the ~/snap location is used. When
the flag is set the new ~/.snapdata location will be used as the root of
all other locations (such as SNAP_USER_DATA and SNAP_USER_COMMON).
The flag is implemented on the go and C sides, as both need to observe
it.

A while ago we enabled this for select customers. We should enable this
globally now as this feature genuinely improves robustness for a certain
class of mount namespace operations.
