Many people prefer to avoid clearing /tmp and /var/tmp, and
distributions often have explicit settings for how often to clear them
if at all. Overriding those with systemd currently requires overriding
all of /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf via
/etc/tmpfiles.d/systemd.conf, copying across all the other entries, and
updating that override when systemd.conf changes.
Move the /tmp and /var/tmp entries from systemd.conf to a separate
tmp.conf, making them easier to override without affecting the rest of
systemd.conf.
