`createTemporaryFile` without `fd` does not create a file, only checks if the 
it exists, hence the race condition. Do you think a better solution would be to 
make it create an empty file and close it right away, similarly to what this 
function does now?

`createTemporaryFile` with `fd` does not have that problem, it actually tries 
to create a file until it succeeds.
