Toshio Kuratomi 6eacfecb73 ANSIBLE_REMOTE_TMP was an implementation of unified temp that was later changed
One of the earlier implementation of unified temp for 2.4 passed the
temp diretory to the remote side using this environment variable.  We
later changed it to be passed via a module parameter but forgot to
remove the environment variable.

minor_changes:
- In Ansible-2.4 and above, Ansible passes the temporary directory a module
should use to the module. This is done via a module parameter
(_ansible_tmpdir). An earlier version of this which was also prototyped in
Ansible-2.4 development used an environment variable, ANSIBLE_REMOTE_TMP to
pass this information to the module instead. When we switched to using
a module parameter, the environment variable was left in by mistake.
Ansible-2.7 removes that variable. Any third party modules which relied on
it should use the module parameter instead.
