newinstall.sh downloads to /tmp/conda_packages.txt , causing user conflicts

Description

We are seeing that "newinstall.sh" performs a curl of conda_packages.txt within the MiniConda installation to /tmp/conda_packages.txt . This file is always left there (I believe), or at the very least can be stranded there with a failed or truncated installation. This can 'lock out' of others, causing build failures say on a machine like lsstdev if a file like

[daues@lsst-dev ~]$ ls -l /tmp/conda_packages.txt
rw-rw-r- 1 moeyensj moeyensj 928 Feb 23 10:03 /tmp/conda_packages.txt

gets left behind. The error looks like :

it would seem more prudent for the file to be downloaded to
/tmp/conda_packages_${USER}.txt or /tmp/conda_packages_$$.txt
or something similar.

I see stack building with newinstall.sh to succeed on lsstdev in the presence of
a formerly hostile /tmp/conda_packages.txt , so the issue looks completely resolved.
