Moving from appdirs to platformdirs

It would be nice if we could reduce/eliminate use of appdirs during the Trixie 
development cycle.  It's unmaintained and superseded by platformdirs.  As far 
as I can tell, platformdirs is API compatible with appdirs, except the import 
path is different.

As a result, switching does need some changes in the upstream code. This point 
in the development cycle is a good time to work with upstream to have them 
make the change upstream.  I did this this week with xml2rfc, it was pretty 
painless, and will be included in the next release.  As we approach the 
freeze, then I think we should shift to working on Debian specific changes.

There's a list below of the affected packages (all of them, not just Debian 
Python packages).  I don't intend to do a MBF now, but may do so later in the 
year (when hopefully the list will be shorter).
