[PATCH] posix: Fix __gen_tempname iteration entropy (BZ#15813)


From: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>

Patch "Do not use HP_TIMING_NOW for random bits (359653aaacad4)" fixed
mostly of the __gen_tempname issues described by BZ#15813. This patch
fixes the remaining one by adding a extra call to random_bits for
eac iteration while trying to create the random name.

The patch also cleanups the tempname implementation since now it
deviates from gnulib counterpart.

Checked on powerpc64le-linux-gnu.

	[BZ #15813]
	* sysdeps/posix/tempname.c: Remove ununsed includes, redundant
	definitions, and defines used only for gnulib.
	(__gen_tempname): Set number of attemps to TMP_MAX and use
	random_bits on eachh iteration.
