Title:	load library (dll) from zipfs-library causes a leak in temporary folder
Type:	Bug	Version:	>=8.7

Description:	8.7 seems to "leak" loaded from zipfs libraries in temp-directory (at least on windows), e. g. each invocation of shell like below creates a new temp-directory with "tclreg13.dll" inside and which is still remained after exit. `echo package require registry; puts [glob -directory $env(TEMP) TCL*] \| tclsh` Is it missing an exit-handler (to delete this)? Could the library not be loaded directly from memory? (I know several ways to do this on win/linux). BTW. It causes several warnings in tcltest-suite like `Warning: files left behind: ... cmdMZ.test: TCL00002f50` So test like this produces a warning: `tcltest -singleproc 1 -file cmdMZ.test` And setting of a TCL_LIBRARY to local library-directory (like `TCL_LIBRARY="$tcl/library"`) would of course prevent this.
