Unix sockets generally have a maximum path length.  Depending on your
$TEST_DIR, it may be exceeded and then all tests that create and use
Unix sockets there may fail.

Circumvent this by adding a new scratch directory specifically for
Unix socket files.  It defaults to a temporary directory (mktemp -d)
that is completely removed after the iotests are done.

(By default, mktemp -d creates a /tmp/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX directory, which
should be short enough for our use cases.)

Should this use mkdir -p, in case two parallel processes compete with 
the same SOCK_DIR?

What if SOCK_DIR is set to something that is not a directory (say a 
file), at which point mkdir fails, but you don't seem to be catching 
that failure.

Otherwise looks good.

I would have used mkdir -p, but I saw we used this construct for
TEST_DIR, so I thought I‘d just go for the same.

Well, the same applies to TEST_DIR.  And technically, as long as we
don’t use mkdir -p for either, not catching the error at least helps
circumvent the potential race. O:-)

(I’ll convert both to mkdir -p with error handling.)
