Using random names for tempfiles makes handling them easier. It reduces
the amount of noise in the code because no custom name needs to be
provided for each tempfile. The names were not really useful in any
case.
It also does not burden the developer with ensuring uniqueness of names.
This is relevant when files for multiple generations need to be stored
in the same directory (e.g. because they need to be accessed after
handling one generation).
Out of an abundance of caution, 32 random alphanumeric characters are
chosen for each filename. The tempfile crate, in comparison, only
chooses 8. 32 characters should be enough to avoid collisions, even
if the PRNG is not of cryptographic quality.
