mount $HOME in tmpfs

I actually do this with NixOS impermanence lol. The things I need are symlinked from a different partition and the stuff I don't need automatically gets wiped clean.

I actually have my ~/.cache mounted as a tmpfs. No need to write that to disk when I have like 50GB of free RAM most of the time.
