When running a testscript, we currently create a temporary directory in $WORK/tmp. This is problematic because it interacts badly with cmd/go (which is used by go/packages) trying to resolve the ./... pattern from $WORK. Instead establish a temporary directory in workdir, but use a prefix that ensures this directory will not be walked when resolving the ./... pattern from workdir.
