Notice the creation of the src/? directory.

I am not sure if it is a side-effect of #470.

Regardless, this directory should be created somewhere else so one can mount the src directory as readonly:

$ docker run \
  --rm \
  -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
  -v '/tmp/test/src:/documents:ro' \
  -v '/tmp/test/build:/mnt/build' \
  asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor:1.76.0 \
  sh -c 'asciidoctor-pdf -D /mnt/build -r asciidoctor-diagram test.adoc'

Even when setting XDG_CACHE_HOME (see https://github.com/asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor/issues/470#issuecomment-2344828843) the src/? directory is still created.

So this has to be configured somewhere else.

$ mkdir -p /tmp/test && cd "$_"
$ mkdir src build
$ cat << 'EOF' >src/test.adoc

So apparently asciidoctor-diagram/plantUML/JDK has to be configured somehow to not write in $HOME but in some other place.
