Cygwin: improve O_TMPFILE handling 

Windows does not remove FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY by itself after a
file has been closed.  It's just some attribute which can be set or
removed at will, despite its purpose.

Apparently there are tools out there which use FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY
accidentally or wrongly, even Microsoft's own tools are affected.  In
the end, the filesystem is potentially full of files with this attribute
set.

Implement O_TMPFILE files with FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY and
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN set.  This combination is pretty unlikely.

/* An O_TMPFILE file has FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY and

attributes here, even if this makes the original link (temporarily)
visible in directory enumeration.
Note that we don't create a reopen attribute for the original
link but rather a normal attribute for the just created link.
The reason is a curious behaviour of Windows: If we remove
the O_TMPFILE attributes on the original link, the new link
will not show up in file system listings, long after the original
link has been closed and removed. The file and its metadata will
be kept in memory only as long as Windows sees fit. By opening
the new link, we request the attribute changes on the new link,
so after closing it Windows will have an increased interest to
write back the metadata. */
