ebuild.sh: sandbox write to ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/portage (bug 673738)

In ebuild.sh, grant sandbox write access directly to
${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/portage, since write access to ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}
itself is not needed. Also, remove the _check_temp_dir symlink
check from bug 378403, since a symlink is permissible if write
access is granted directly to ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/portage.
