Since upstream commit 25f23a25c (Log loaded conf file, 2024-11-09),
DOSBox-X creates a default configuration file if an existing file does
not exist when its binary is launched, even when it is just to run self
tests. When Portage runs the tests, to ensure the tests can start
without an error or even a segmentation fault, the 'portage' user must
have permission to the path where DOSBox-X will create the configuration
file.

This reverts commit b8194cde46.
The upstream has just made a new release after I started to believe that
they had ditched tagged releases. Who knows what will happen next...
Not revision-bumping the 2022.09.1_pre20221210 ebuild because there is
just a trivial documentation change for it; existing users of this
package will likely update to a new version soon.

Without a clear explanation, the upstream of this package has stopped
tagging releases and willy-nilly switched to "continuously built"
"nightly builds" (a.k.a. prone-to-break-on-any-day binaries put for user
downloads at an obscure place). To allow Gentoo users to use recent
versions of this package without having to resort to the live ebuild, we
have no choice other than to make new non-live ebuilds based on GitHub
snapshot tarballs from now on.
