Determines the package configuration directory name and creates the
directory if it doesn't exist.
This directory is typically ``$HOME/.astropy/config``, but if the
XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable is set and the
``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/astropy`` directory exists, it will be that directory.
If neither exists, the former will be created and symlinked to the latter.
Parameters
----------
rootname : str
Name of the root configuration directory. For example, if ``rootname =
'pkgname'``, the configuration directory would be ``<home>/.pkgname/``
rather than ``<home>/.astropy`` (depending on platform).

Context manager to set a temporary path for the Astropy config, primarily

Parameters
----------
path : str, optional
The directory (which must exist) in which to find the Astropy config
files, or create them if they do not already exist. If None, this
restores the config path to the user's default config path as returned
by `get_config_dir` as though this context manager were not in effect
(this is useful for testing). In this case the ``delete`` argument is
