Better documentation for env::home_dir()'s broken behaviour
This improves the documentation to say *why* it was deprecated. The reason was because it reads `HOME` on Windows which is meaningless there. Note that the PR that deprecated it stated that returning an empty string if `HOME` is set to an empty string was a problem, however I can find no evidence that this is the case. `cd` handles it fine whereas if `HOME` is unset it gives an explicit `HOME not set` error.
* Original deprecation reason: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/deprecate-or-break-fix-std-env-home-dir/7315
* Original deprecation PR: rust-lang#51656
