AIX does not come with mktemp, which is a (hidden) requirement of Ansible at this point.

So the consensus is to have the server generate a string and then execute mkdir -p ansible-<epoch>-<random> on the remote end so that we do not rely on the availability of mktemp.

@dagwieers
Get rid of mktemp dependency to support AIX
a8fd6ee 
The function call has been renamed to better reflect what it does, and we
reduced the number of calls from two to one in case the remote user is not
root.

This patch also fixes a string concatenation in _copy_module() that
should use os.path.join()

This closes #436
