Document how to set ES_TMPDIR in the service file (elastic#93121)
fde15b2 
Today we suggest that users set `ES_TMPDIR` using `export`, which only
works if you're running things directly from the shell. Yet most users
encountering `ES_TMPDIR` problems seem to on RHEL and trying to run
things via `systemd`, for whom the `export` suggestion doesn't work.

This commit adds to the docs a suggestion of how to adjust the `systemd`
service file to set the appropriate environment variable.
