Change athena-run shell script to use the system's `tmp` directory rather than the ATHENA_HOME directory. Installing athena to ATHENA_HOME that is not writeable to all users, i.e. installing athena as a shared application, makes the athena-run script useless. By using the system's `tmp` directory you are able to write the temporary file needed without having write access to ATHENA_HOME. Fixes a filetype issue when trying to load a .ath file with athena-run. Using athena-run with example.ath results in athena loading example.ath.ath. Which is unintended behavior.
Use a temporary with random string to avoid collisions if multiple users are using athena-run.
