fix(npm): Fix NPM_TOKEN usage again

This is a retake on #130. Although npm/cli#8 claims to have support
for `npm_config_//registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=` usage, my tests
and the reports on the internet says this still doesn't work, even
with the latest npm (7.0.15 at the time).

The only way to pass the token is to have the `authToken` line in
an `.npmrc` file. The quick&dirty way would have been to create one
in the project directory but that may collide with a potentially
pre-existing project `.npmrc`. Trying to merge these seems more
trouble than it is worth:
https://github.com/actions/setup-node/blob/59e61b89511ed136a0b17773f07c349fa5c01e8b/src/authutil.ts
(even worse as you'd need to revert these changes after the fact)

The "better" solution I found is:

1. Create a temporary file as your npmrc
2. Put the token/registry line there
3. Tell npm to use that file as the user config
4. Use the `npm_config_userconfig` for the above to support yarn too

This may still fail for yarn, see yarnpkg/yarn#4568.
