On linux, set $HOME=/proc/homeless-shelter instead of /homeless-shelter

When building, $HOME is set to a non-existing dir. Previously it was always set to /homeless-shelter. After a build, the builder verifies that it doesn't exist. In some scenarios (specifically when using the linux sandbox with a single-user installation), it is possible to create the /homeless-shelter directory, and some tools will create it, resulting in a build error.

Now, on Linux, $HOME is set to /proc/homeless-shelter. This directory can never be created, since /proc is a virtual filesystem. This resolves the issue.
