Comment (by jdemeyer):

 I would argue for `local/share` because the stuff in `SAGE_DATA` (apart
 from extcode) isn't part of Sage.  It's part of external
 packages/databases.  So I think it's wrong to use a `sage` subdirectory.

 Installing databases in `local/share/sage/data` is like installing all
 binaries in `local/bin/sage/binaries` and we don't do that either.

 For extcode, `local/share/sage` makes sense.
