$suffix (string) Optional. Suffix for the temporary file name. Default ”.
@return (string) to the created temporary file.
Notes
The file is only readable and writable by its owner on non-Windows systems.
The file is created in the directory returned by WP-CLI’s get_temp_dir()
(based on sys_get_temp_dir()), not WordPress’s get_temp_dir(), and is
not removed automatically; callers are responsible for cleaning it up.
On failure, this function exits via WP_CLI::error() rather than throwing.
