 The following bug caught our eye while reviewing undocumented changes made
 between ESR52 and ESR60 (for #22074):

 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1407490
 "Ensure cubeb remoting socket has unique name per server process."

 From reading the code in media/audioipc/audioipc/src/lib.rs, it looks like
 temporary files are created in the path returned by `temp_dir()` (which is
 probably /tmp or the %TEMP% directory on Windows). We should see if that
 is true, what data is in the files, and whether they are left behind when
 the browser exits.
