Two users can not run-webkit-tests at once (due to use of /tmp)

This comes up somewhat often @ Google because a lot of users use Windows or Linux boxes as their main desktop and just SSH into a mac to test patches & run the layout tests.

Example failure:
Running tests from /Projects/WebKit/LayoutTests
Testing 10629 test cases.
accessibility ....................could not create /tmp/layout-test-results/accessibility/plugin-stderr.txt

Turns out there is already:

  -o|--results-directory          Output results directory (default: /tmp/layout-test-results)

So I guess Julie and I just need to use that.  Whether that should change to default to something else or not is a different question. :)
