Create a secure temp path instead of a predictable one (Thanks Han)

Browse Source 
With this commit, i3 will now use either $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/i3 (XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
is only writable by the user, so this is not a problem) or a secure temporary
location in /tmp, following the pattern /tmp/i3-<user>.XXXXXX

=== I3SOCK
This variable overwrites the IPC socket path (placed in
/tmp/i3-%u/ipc-socket.%p by default, where %u is replaced with your UNIX
username and %p is replaced with i3’s PID). The IPC socket is used by external
programs like i3-msg(1) or i3bar(1).
/tmp/i3-%u.XXXXXX/ipc-socket.%p by default, where %u is replaced with your UNIX
username, %p is replaced with i3’s PID and XXXXXX is a string of random
characters from the portable filename character set (see mkdtemp(3))). The IPC
socket is used by external programs like i3-msg(1) or i3bar(1).
