tests: do not dd into /dev/null

Few of our tests run /bin/dd with of=/dev/null. Occasionally, dd calls
fsync(2) on its destination file, which is (for some reason) unsupported
by /dev/null.

We are left with false-negative test results such as
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/vdsm_unit_tests/215/testReport/junit/miscTests/DdWatchCopy/testStop/
which tarnishes our reputation.

Let's dd into a temporary file instead.
