    /// Obtain a temp dir named after our thread, and the module path `mod_path`

    /// followed by the test function name.
    /// (This is how Rust's builtin `#[test]` names its threads.)
    // This is also used by some other crates.
    // If it turns out not to be true, we'll end up panicking.
    //
    // This is rather a shonky approach.  We take it here for the following reasons:
    //
    // It is important that the persistent test output filename is stable,
    // even if the source code is edited.  For example, if we used the line number
    // of the macro call, editing the source would change the output filenames.
    // When the output filenames change willy-nilly, it is very easy to accidentally
    // look at an out-of-date filename containing out-of-date test data,
    // which can be very confusing.
    //
    // We could ask the user to supply a string, but we'd then need
    // some kind of contraption for verifying its uniqueness, since
    // non-unique test names would risk tests overwriting each others'
    // files, making for flaky or malfunctioning tests.
    //
    // So the test function name is the best stable identifier we have,
    // and the thread name is the only way we have of discovering it.
    // Happily this works with `cargo nextest` too.
    //
    // For the same reasons, it wouldn't be a good idea to fall back
    // from the stable name to some less stable but more reliably obtainable id.
    //
    // And, the code structure is deliberately arranged that we *always*
    // try to determine the test name, even if TEST_TEMP_RETAIN isn't set.
    // Otherwise a latent situation, where TEST_TEMP_RETAIN doesn't work, could develop.
    //
    /// And, expects that `mod_path` is the crate name,
    /// and then the module path within the crate.
    /// This is what Rust's builtin `module_path!` macro returns.
    ///
    /// The two instances of the module path within the crate must be the same!
