Rollup merge of rust-lang#98801 - joshtriplett:file-create-new, r=thomcc

Add a `File::create_new` constructor

We have `File::create` for creating a file or opening an existing file,
but the secure way to guarantee creating a new file requires a longhand
invocation via `OpenOptions`.

Add `File::create_new` to handle this case, to make it easier for people
to do secure file creation.
