[PATCH v2 1/1] config: add back code comment

[Kristoffer Haugsbakk <code@khaugsbakk.name>]

c15129b699 (config: factor out global config file retrieval, 2024-01-18)
was a refactor that moved some of the code in this function to
`config.c`. However, in the process I managed to drop this code comment
which explains `$HOME not set`.
