An error message was added when home is not a directory, so that user knows exactly why WeeChat can't create log file.

if yo have a regular file named /tmp/foo, and if you start WeeChat like : weechat-curses --dir /tmp/foo, regular file /tmp/foo will be deleted and a directory named /tmp/foo will be created and populate with weechat config stuff.

This should be anoying to erase data without prompting anything. It will be great to test if "--dir option" exists as a regular file and in that case stop WeeChat and display an error.
