`createTemporaryDirectory` overloads

== Synopses

Declared in `<bdls_filesystemutil.h>`

Create a new directory with a name constructed by appending an automatically‐generated suffix to the specified `prefix`. A non‐zero return value indicates that no such directory could be created; otherwise the name of the directory created is assigned to the specified `outPath`. The directory is created with permissions restricted, as closely as possible, to the caller only. If the prefix is a relative path, the directory is created relative to the process current directory. Responsibility for deleting the directory (and any files subsequently created in it) is left to the caller.
