Motivation
Fix #15988.
When passing --option use-xdg-base-directories to certain nix-env subcommands like --install, a warning is erroneously printed.
According to the
nix-daemondocumentation, the purpose of the daemon is to run builds and other operations on behalf of unprivileged users. Therefore, it is weird to forwarduse-xdg-base-directoriesoption.The image below shows that the warning is reproduced, while the expected XDG profile symlinks are still created:

The fix removes
settings.useXDGBaseDirectories.namefrom the forwarded override set.The image below shows that after the fix warning no longer appears, while expected XDG profile symlinks are still created:
