Man pages: Add mention of behavior due to XDG_CONFIG_HOMEpr-16099-first-reviewed
When the `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variable is changed, for example,
to switch development contexts, the behavior of the podman-machine can
be confusing. The documentation had not mentioned this, and this commit
adds these mentions.
Closes: https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/15577
