CloseReturns a unique path in the Temp folder within your current project.
The returned path is relative to the project folder.
The returned path is of a form Temp/UnityTempFile-uniqueID, where uniqueID is guaranteed to be
unique over space and time.
You can use it to create temporary files/folders and be sure that
you are not overriding somebody else's files, plus you don't have to
keep track of the unique IDs yourself.
