Use TMPDIR if available

Use environment variable TMPDIR (typically /run/user/$UID) as default
temporary directory, if available. This should be more private
location than /var/tmp. Path specified with --tmpdir is takes
precedence over TMPDIR and /var/tmp is still used as last resort if
neither TMPDIR is set nor --tmpdir is used.
