Title: fix support for installing latest Intel tools

Current support for installing Intel tools takes into account that a shared dir `$HOME/intel` is being used which prevents building Intel tools in parallel because they overwrite stuff from each other.

This was tackled by constructing a randomly suffixed dir per build, and patching the install scripts to use that directory instead of the default.

This is broken for the latest version of the Intel tools, because the install script that was being patched is replaced by a binary.

New approach is to symlink `$HOME/intel` to a local dir in `/tmp`, which still allows to install multiple Intel tools in parallel if the home dir in on a shared filesystem. Also works for previous versions of the Intel tools.
