Corinna Vinschen 7ae73be141 Cygwin: improve O_TMPFILE handling
Windows does not remove FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY by itself after a
file has been closed.  It's just some attribute which can be set or
removed at will, despite its purpose.

Apparently there are tools out there which use FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY
accidentally or wrongly, even Microsoft's own tools are affected.  In
the end, the filesystem is potentially full of files with this attribute
set.

Implement O_TMPFILE files with FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY and
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN set.  This combination is pretty unlikely.
