David Wilson f9e1905ec6 issue #199: ansible: stop writing temp files for new style modules
While adding support for non-new style module types, NewStyleRunner
began writing modules to a temporary file, and sys.argv was patched to
actually include the script filename. The argv change was never required
to fix any particular bug, and a search of the standard modules reveals
no argv users. Update argv[0] to be '', like an interactive interpreter
would have.

While fixing #210, new style runner began setting __file__ to the
temporary file path in order to allow apt.py to discover the Ansiballz
temporary directory. 5 out of 1,516 standard modules follow this
pattern, but in each case, none actually attempt to access __file__,
they just call dirname on it. Therefore do not write the contents of
file, simply set it to the path as it would exist, within a real
temporary directory.

Finally move temporary directory creation out of runner and into target.
Now a single directory exists for the duration of a run, and is emptied
by runner.py as necessary after each task invocation.

This could be further extended to stop rewriting non-new-style modules
in a with_items loop, but that's another step.

Finally the last bullet point in the documentation almost isn't a lie
again.
