[issue5178] Add context manager for temporary directory

[Neil Schemenauer]

Neil Schemenauer <nas-python at arctrix.com> added the comment:

New version of the patch.  Added a __del__ method that hopefully works
reliably.  Added NEWS and an example of TemporaryFile as a context
manager.  I did not change more tests to use TemporaryDirectory since I
understand hit-and-run modernization of code is generally discouraged. 
That said, I think there are some tests that could have their
reliability improved by using TemporaryDirectory (I started on this
patch when I saw some build bot failures).  I'll look into that later.
