Fix rare race condition in Dets
The correction is due to the the evil testcase dets_SUITE:simultaneous_open(). If the process repairing a Dets file is killed (should normally never happen), and another process tries to repair the file, a temporary file from the first process could live on for a while, even after a successful call to file:delete(). This has only been seen on W-nd-ows, where it is a known problem. There are other ways to deal with the problem (rename the file; use some other filename), but we continue using one certain filename in order to be as backwards compatible as possible.
