Gets the directory to use for temporary files.
On UNIX, this is taken from the TMPDIR environment
variable. If the variable is not set, P_tmpdir is
used, as defined by the system C library. Failing that, a hard-coded
default of "/tmp" is returned.
On Windows, the TEMP environment variable is used,
with the root directory of the Windows installation (eg: "C:\") used
as a default.
The encoding of the returned string is system-defined. On Windows, it
is always UTF-8. The return value is never NULL or the empty string.
