📄 Description

This is a stab at handling @reinerh's comments in #1036:
making ~/.local read-only, and ~/.local/share read-writeable.

Pro:

likely doesn't break most things;
provides sensible protection for ~/.local/{bin,lib,...}

Con:

breaks the few applications that write to ~/.local/${app} directly (I'm not aware of any impacted profile, though);
doesn't provide any isolation in ~/.local/share.

I would happily welcome some discussion about what are our options there.
