Thus for building without any options this would be
"/usr/local/var/run",
"/run",
"/var/run"
and for a distro build (--prefix=/) this would be
"/var/run",
"/run",
"/var/run"
so that we need to detect this case to get the order right again.
I assume you are not using a a distro supplied gnupg; in this case a
dedicated configure option for the first socketdir to try would be
easier because it does not break existing usages. A runtime option
can't be used here, except if we would take the list of socketdirs to
try from a global config files (e.g. /etc/gnupg/socketdirs.list).
