fs.mkdtemp should return a Buffer when prefix argument is a Buffer #58795

Description

@bakkot

fs.mkdtemp and friends take a prefix argument, which can be a Buffer encoding a non-UTF8 path. But the APIs always return a string, which can mangle the encoding. So these should return a Buffer in that case. See #58516 (comment).
