Issue:
Allowing specification of the download directory
Right now the functions listed on the README.md doesn't allow specifying the target directory. This functionality should be possible just by propagating extra parameters to the download function.

+Both the url where the files can be found, and the temporary directory where
+they will be cached locally can be modified in the next way:
+```
+import mnist
+
+mnist.datasets_url = 'http://url-to-the/datasets'
+
+# temporary_dir is a function, so it can be dinamically created
+# like Python stdlib `tempfile.gettempdir` (which is the default)
+mnist.temporary_dir = lambda: '/tmp/mnist'
+
+train_images = mnist.train_images()
+```

 It supports Python 2.7 and Python >= 3.5.
