[scan-build-py] use python tempfile for tempdir

[rizsotto.mailinglist]

Summary

It's a chunk from D26390

tempdir method is used to be a default value for parent directory of the output directory. The implementation was following the Perl scan-build implementation. It tries to come up with a meaningful (most probably writable) place on the filesystem. The very same functionality is implemented in python tempfile module. It's tested better, it works on multiple platform and requires no additional code to use it.

This this looks much cleaner to me!

I suppose this will break anyone who was setting TMPDIR, etc. to direct output. But if they were, they have a command-line flag they could use instead of an environment variable.

Thanks for the review Devin!

I suppose this will break anyone who was setting TMPDIR, etc. to direct output. But if they were, they have a command-line flag they could use instead of an environment variable.

Actually, TMPDIR,TEMP and TMP environment still kicks in as primary location if command line argument does not present. Would not make breaking change like that.

 It also implements basic validation methods, related to the command.
 Validations are mostly calling specific help methods, or mangling values.
