Summary0005795: zonemaster cannot access namestore in multi-user setup
DescriptionWhen I run GNUnet in the multi-user setup (system services started as user gnunet, user services started as my user) I see this in the logs of the system services:

```shell
Jul 06 20:58:07-984198 util-31247 DEBUG Asked to $-expand $GNUNET_USER_RUNTIME_DIR/gnunet-service-namestore.sock
Jul 06 20:58:07-984230 util-31247 DEBUG Split into `GNUNET_USER_RUNTIME_DIR' and `gnunet-service-namestore.sock' with default (null)

Jul 06 20:58:07-984671 util-client-31247 DEBUG Failed to establish connection to `namestore', no further addresses to try, will try again in 262 s.
```

This output is generated by the zonemaster service (I enabled debug output there). The result is that records that I add using ``gnunet-namestore`` are not published in GNS. I saw that the namestore service is run per user, so how can zonemaster, which runs once per system, access it? When I run only one namestore service per system, by changing the two options below, everything works as expected.

```shell
[namestore]
RUN_PER_USER = NO
UNIXPATH = $GNUNET_RUNTIME_DIR/gnunet-service-namestore.sock
```

Is it ok to run the namestore service like this? We should change it in the default config then.
Steps To Reproduce./bootstrap
export CFLAGS="-g -Wall -O0"
./configure --enable-logging=verbose --disable-documentation
sudo useradd --system --home-dir /var/lib/gnunet --create-home gnunet
sudo groupadd gnunetdns
make && sudo make install
usermod -aG gnunet <myuser>
# log out, log in

# create config files in /var/lib/gnunet/.config/gnunet.conf and /home/<myuser>/.config/gnunet.conf
# as both user gnunet and <myuser>:
gnunet-arm -s

Additional Informationsystem config:
```shell
[ARM]
START_SYSTEM_SERVICES = YES
START_USER_SERVICES = NO

[zonemaster]
OPTIONS = -L DEBUG
                                                                                                                                                                                      
[NAT]
ENABLE_UPNP = NO
                                                                                                                                                                                      
[FS]
IMMEDIATE_START = NO
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
[rest]
IMMEDIATE_START =NO
```

user config:
```shell
[arm]
START_SYSTEM_SERVICES = NO
START_USER_SERVICES = YES
```

Zonemaster should run per user, but wasn't configured to do so. Fixed in aca547d7e..1b7caeb5a
