Description:
There is code in mysql-test-run.pl that generates a tmpdir for the socket path if it's default is longer than 70.

There are two problems:
1. The default socket path is set to /path/var/tmp/master.sock even if --tmpdir is used, it should be set to $tmpdir/master.sock in that case.
2. The 70 character max length for socket paths only exist on some platforms, better to test what the limit is on the running platform - if possible.

How to repeat:

The tmpdir created should also be removed when mtr.pl completes.

       - Additional patch with improved protection by putting it all inside an "eval"
       - Calling 'hostpath' on a truncated socket may also croak.
       - Remove the need to create any directory parts of "path" inside the function.
