SUMMARY
Improves the Add-Type temporary directory handler to include a retry mechanism and not fail on an error. Deleting a temporary file used in compilation is not a critical error and should improve the reliability of Ansible on Windows hosts.
I need to figure out a good way to test this out. I cannot replicate the underlying error but I think I can create a test that runs as an underprivileged user with the tempdir not giving delete access.
Fixes: ansible-collections/ansible.windows#598
