fstab: remove noexec from /tmp

Mounting /tmp as noexec is recommended by some guidelines, and it probably defends against some attacks. However, some packages rely on /tmp being mounted exec, so we do that by default.

At the end of the day the admin decides the contents of fstab, so the default is not that important.
