Allow users to specify a tmp location via config
Fixes bug 981104
Although the temporary directory used can be controlled via
environment variables, this patch provides a way to define it
explicitly via a config option.
The default value is None, which behaves per the doc below:
http://docs.python.org/2/library/tempfile.html#tempfile.tempdir
Flags: DocImpact
