The goal was that the temporary file ended with ".tmp" so that it would
be removed by "make clean" in case the test fails or is interrupted, so
it would be good to update the "make clean" rules to find these files.

I also notice that there are occasional e2fsprogs-tmp.XXXXXX files left
behind in /tmp after testing, and it would be nice if they contained the
test name so they can be found if there is a problem.

It looks like the same could be done in tests/test_one.in:

TMPFILE=$(mktemp -t e2fsprogs-$test_name.tmp.XXXXXX)


Cheers, Andreas
