A testing cleanup.

This pull request replaces ioutil.TempDir with t.TempDir. We can use the T.TempDir function from the testing package to create temporary directory. The directory created by T.TempDir is automatically removed when the test and all its subtests complete.

This saves us at least 2 lines (error check, and cleanup) on every instance, or in some cases adds cleanup that we forgot.

Reference: https://pkg.go.dev/testing#T.TempDir

func TestFoo(t *testing.T) {
	// before
	tmpDir, err := ioutil.TempDir("", "")
	assert.NoError(t, err)
	defer func() { _ = os.RemoveAll(dir) }()

	// now
	tmpDir := t.TempDir()
}

This commit replaces `ioutil.TempDir` with `t.TempDir` in tests. The
directory created by `t.TempDir` is automatically removed when the test
and all its subtests complete.

Prior to this commit, temporary directory created using `ioutil.TempDir`
needs to be removed manually by calling `os.RemoveAll`, which is omitted
in some tests. The error handling boilerplate e.g.
	defer func() {
		if err := os.RemoveAll(dir); err != nil {
			t.Fatal(err)
		}
	}
is also tedious, but `t.TempDir` handles this for us nicely.
