register_tempfile(): new function to handle an existing temporary file

Allow an existing file to be registered with the tempfile-handling
infrastructure; in particular, arrange for it to be deleted on program
exit. This can be used if the temporary file has to be created in a
more complicated way than just open(). For example:

* If the file itself needs to be created via the lockfile API
* If it is not a regular file (e.g., a socket)

tempfile: add several functions for creating temporary files

Add several functions for creating temporary files with
automatically-generated names, analogous to mkstemps(), but also
arranging for the files to be deleted on program exit.

The functions are named according to a pattern depending how they
operate. They will be used to replace many places in the code where
temporary files are created and cleaned up ad-hoc.

tempfile: a new module for handling temporary files

A lot of work went into defining the state diagram for lockfiles and
ensuring correct, race-resistant cleanup in all circumstances.

Most of that infrastructure can be applied directly to *any* temporary
file. So extract a new "tempfile" module from the "lockfile" module.
Reimplement lockfile on top of tempfile.

Subsequent commits will add more users of the new module.
