Easy-TLS temporary directory

The temporary directory is used by Easy-TLS server scripts to share TLS-Crypt-V2 key metadata.

From easytls-cryptv2-verify.sh
- To easytls-client-connect.sh and easytls-client-disconnect.sh.

Recommended settings are:

Linux using systemd
Use /tmp which is protected by systemd:PrivateTmp=true
Configure: ./easytls config tmp.dir /tmp (This is set by default)
Linux using sysV
Use /var/easytls (Any subdirectory of /var is suitable)
Configure: ./easytls config tmp.dir /var/easytls
This directory must be created by root: sudo mkdir /var/easytls
Windows
Use C:\Windows\Temp (This is set by default, any directory is suitable)

For a busy Server, it may be more suitable to locate the temporary directory on a virtual media.
