This should avoid physical memory restrictions set in place for `tmpfs` (aka `/tmp`) that prevent us from utilzing more than 50% of the available physical memory on our EBS. Signed-off-by: Courtney Pacheco <[email protected]>

This PR tackles the same issue originally identified in instructlab/instructlab#2866, where we noticed intermittent OOM issues during some of our e2e CI jobs.
While I have not noticed any OOM issues recently in this repo, updating the default temporary write directory from
tmpfs(aka/tmp) to/home/tmpshould mitigate the risk of OOM errors occurring in our e2e CI jobs since we'll now theoretically have access to 100% of the available physical memory in our EBS volume, instead of only 50%.
