Backport

This PR is auto-generated from #13056 to be assessed for backporting due to the inclusion of the label backport/website.

The below text is copied from the body of the original PR.

Packer 1.11.0 requires access to a system's temporary directory for downloading and validating remote plugins installed via packer init or packer plugins install. This information is not documented and can lead to confusion for users working on systems whose TMPDIR are non-writable or non-executable (e.g CIS hardened environments).

Closes #13028
