This function is called in response to connecting clients, and can fail
when I/O fails for some (possibly temporary) reason.  In such cases we
should not exit the process, but just reject the connecting client.

This commit changes the function to actually return NULL on errors, and
(where needed) changes the callers to check for and handle errors.

Note that this changes the behavior for pf plugins: instead of just not
initializing the firewall rules and happily continuing, this now rejects
the client in the case of an (unlikely) failure to initialize the pf.

Since the tls-crypt-v2 metadata code also calls create_temp_file() when
clients connect, I consider this a prerequisite for tls-crypt-v2.
