makeUnsafeTemporaryFilename overloads

Synopses

Declared in <bdls_filesystemutil.h>

Construct a file name by appending an automatically‐generated suffix to the specified prefix. The file name constructed is assigned to the specified outPath. Note that this function is called "unsafe" because a file with the resulting name may be created by another program before the caller has opportunity to use the name, which could be a security vulnerability, and a file with the given name may already exist where you mean to put it. Note that the suffix is hashed from environmental details, including any pre‐existing value of outPath so that if a resulting name is unsuitable (e.g. the file exists) this function may simply be called again, pointing to its previous result, to get a new, probably different name.
