We should use the directory a user specified in qemu.conf. If it doesn't exist, well things won't work. Sure, we can complain about it in the logs, but we should not fallback to any magic default in that case. Anyone setting a custom directory for TLS certificates does this because they want to use it. If the directory does not exist, it's either because they forgot to create it or they made a typo somewhere. It's very unlikely someone actually wants to use a default directory even though they set a custom one.
