SCL can't run if /var/tmp is not writable #29

Description

@kingcritter

Problem: if /var/tmp/ is not writable, scl enable fails to work. The directory is hard-coded in fallback.c.

Suggestion: read $TMPDIR and use that location, if set.

Note: I ran into this problem while trying to use SCL in a script that runs early in the bootup process, before /var/ is mounted. The drive I'm booting from is read-only.
