test-mktemp: plug memory and descriptor leaks
We test xmkstemp() in our helper by just calling:
xmkstemp(xstrdup(argv[1]));
This leaks both the copied string as well as the descriptor returned by
the function. In practice this isn't a big deal, since we immediately
exit the program, but:
1. LSan will complain about the memory leak. The only reason we did
not notice this in our leak-checking builds is that both of the
callers in the test suite (both in t0070) pass a broken template
(and expect failure). So the function calls die() before we can
actually leak.
But it's an accident waiting to happen if anybody adds a call which
succeeds.
2. Coverity complains about the descriptor leak. There's a long list
of uninteresting or false positives in Coverity's results, but
since we're here we might as well fix it, too.
I didn't bother adding a new test that triggers the leak. It's not even
in real production code, but just in the test-helper itself.
