override tempFileFor:suffix: for Windows compatibility (Squeak only) #410

should fix #409

Turned out to be tricky to commit this, because several methods in the MetacelloToolbox package cannot be checked out on Windows (filenames too long) and because tools like Metacello-Git stage everything before the commit, these methods were removed. Had to correct this "by hand" outside of Squeak.

@j4yk Note that there is a dev_win-hack branch where the filenames have been truncated to allow a checkout on windows ... cherry-picking a commit from that branch would probably make things a bit easier

Thank you for the tip @dalehenrich, that branch saved me quite some time.
