Since Windows 10 Build 20348, there is a new API to get the temporary files path called [`GetTempPath2`](https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-gettemppath2w). This API returns a directory inaccessible to non-SYSTEM processes if the calling process runs as SYSTEM, and [it is recommended to call this function instead of `GetTempPath`](https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/win32/api/fileapi/nf-fileapi-gettemppathw#remarks). This PR tries to find `GetTempPath2A` / `GetTempPath2W` and uses that, otherwise it falls back to `GetTempPathA` / `GetTempPathW`. *Note:* this PR removes an unused function `GetTempPathWrapper` that which referenced `GetTempPathW`
