There are other clients such as TortoiseSVN which have some config
settings outside of ~/.subversion. Users if those clients cannot
just copy ~/.subversion either.

But I suppose the CLI client is the "default" client we support.
So I don't see an issue with having its configuration live within
~/.subversion.  FWIW, I'd prefer the name "~/.subversion/svnrc".

The svnrc file should not be created by libsvn_client, though.
The cli client could create it after initializing the client library,
at which point the config directory is guaranteed to exist (if I remember
correctly).
