#28373: verify that cubeb-related tmp files do not violate disk avoidance
------------------------------------------+--------------------------------

------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
The following bug caught our eye while reviewing undocumented changes made
between ESR52 and ESR60 (for #22074):
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1407490
"Ensure cubeb remoting socket has unique name per server process."
From reading the code in media/audioipc/audioipc/src/lib.rs, it looks like
temporary files are created in the path returned by `temp_dir()` (which is
probably /tmp or the %TEMP% directory on Windows). We should see if that
is true, what data is in the files, and whether they are left behind when
the browser exits.
