Let's use a path with a name that matches the user and use a real configuration example like https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/ignition-when-a-file-is-created-parent-dir-is-still-owned-by-root/41222

contents:
inline: Hello, world!
user:
name: exampleuser
group:
name: examplegroup
# This creates the directory that the file should be inside. Its mode is set to 0755 by default, that
# is, readable and executable by all, and writable by the owner.

I don't think we need this one as it's created with the user.
