Title: Configurable temp directory patch

I made the root temp directory for pacaur configurable through the /etc/xdg/pacaur/pacaur.conf (or other applicable) file. This makes it easy to use, e.g., /var/tmp instead of /tmp without having to change $TMPDIR, which would effect things "globally" for a given user.

The big benefit of this is that on Arch, we tend to use tmpfs on /tmp, but if you want to save your developmental AUR files between reboots (to speed up sync via a given RCS), this can become problematic. This patch should allow users to solve that by just editing the pacaur.conf.
