Move macOS TMPDIR hack from initNix to initLibStore

This code is bad. We shouldn't unset variables in programs whose
children may need them. Fixing one issue at a time, so postponing.
See https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/7731

Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things,
by moving code into the appropriate libraries.
