By default, spawn-wrap writes temporary files to HOME.
It used to be /tmp, but it changed that to HOME to support
environments that have 'noexec' flags set on their tmpfs mount.
Ref istanbuljs/spawn-wrap#3.

The problem with this is that nyc now no longer works in environments
without a (writable) home directory (e.g. the 'nobody' user on
Linux).

While it is fine to fallback to HOME, it should write elsewhere
if that is unavailable, and ideally in a way that doesn't require
every sysadmin or end-user to hardcode some environment variable
in their package.json specifically for nyc or spawn-wrap.

A common way to communicate this intent is with the XDG_CACHE_HOME
environment variable.

Fixes #951.
