/// Deletion:
///
/// Linux >= 3.11: The temporary file is never linked into the filesystem so it can't be leaked.
///
/// Other *nix: The temporary file is immediately unlinked on create. The OS will delete it when
/// the last open copy of it is closed.
///
/// Windows: The temporary file is marked DeleteOnClose and, again, will be deleted when the last
/// open copy of it is closed. Unlike *nix operating systems, the file is not immediately unlinked
/// from the filesystem.
