Summary: tempfile.py rewrite

Initial Comment:
This rewrite closes a number of security-relevant races
in tempfile.py; makes temporary filenames much harder
to guess; provides secure interfaces that can be used
to close similar races elsewhere; and makes it possible
to control the prefix and directory of each temporary
created, individually.
