    difftool: use a strbuf to generate a tmpdir path without double-slashes

The double-slashes are the point. This patch is a minor cleanup that I
found on the path towards fixing the data loss bug in patch 4.

Thanks for the heads-up about the confusion ~ I'll reword in the next
submission to make this point clearer.
Thanks. My primary concern with the patch was actually that it looks
like mere code churn that introduces an error by not using is_dir_sep().
This is now settled.

But still, without a justification why the slashes should be cleaned up,
the patch looks like code churn. You can ignore me if it is obvious for
others why we need the patch.
