chore: make minimal_init.lua more robust (#1131)

1. setting `runtimepath` to `$VIMRUNTIME` _only_  (skipping user plugins but
    still sourcing builtin filetype plugins)
2. putting the `packer_compiled.lua` into a temp directory to avoid clobbering
    the user's own (or, worse, conflicting if they configured a non-standard
    location themselves)
3. updating installed plugins unconditionally (to prevent stale plugins from
    earlier tests)
