`tmpfriend` is a Go library to help prevent misbehaving subprocesses / code

from forgetting to cleanup after themselves. It works by modifying the

location of the temporary directory to one unique for the current process, and

on start will clean up older temporary directories for non-existant processes.

```

func main() {

	cleanup := tmpfriend.SetupOrNOOP()

	defer cleanup()

	// ...

}

```
