The local string tmp_filename is passed to function get_tmp_filename
which expects a string with minimum size MAX_PATH for w32 hosts.

MAX_PATH is 260 and PATH_MAX is 259, so tmp_filename was too short.

Commit eba25057b9a5e19d10ace2bc7716667a31297169 introduced this
regression.

v2: Added TODO comment as suggested by Stefan Hajnoczi.

Hi Anthony, hi Blue,

this fix is needed for 1.3 to avoid a fatal assertion on Windows.
As discussed on qemu-devel, it is a minimal solution and can be
replaced by a better one after 1.3.

Please commit it to git master.

Regards
Stefan
