Florian Weimer 8adfb0eeff support_create_temp_directory: Align behavior with create_temp_file
create_temp_file automatically supplies the test directory and the
XXXXXX suffix.  support_create_temp_directory required the caller to
specify them, which was confusing.

Florian Weimer c22553effb support: Prevent multiple deletion of temporary files
Otherwise, another user might recreate these files after the first
deletion.  Particularly with temporary directories, this could result
in the removal of unintended files through symbol link attacks.

Florian Weimer 706256afb6 support: Delete temporary files in LIFO order
This is required to remove temporary directories which contain
temporary files.  Previously, FIFO order meant that directory
removal was attempted when the directory still contained files,
which meant that temporary directory cleanup was essentially
unsupported.

Florian Weimer c23de0aacb support: Introduce new subdirectory for test infrastructure
The new test driver in <support/test-driver.c> has feature parity with
the old one.  The main difference is that its hooking mechanism is
based on functions and function pointers instead of macros.  This
commit also implements a new environment variable, TEST_COREDUMPS,
which disables the code which disables coredumps (that is, it enables
them if the invocation environment has not disabled them).

<test-skeleton.c> defines wrapper functions so that it is possible to
use existing macros with the new-style hook functionality.

This commit changes only a few test cases to the new test driver, to
make sure that it works as expected.
