Subject: git_mkstemps_mode(): replace magic numbers with computed value
The magic number "6" appears several times in the function, and is related to the size of the "XXXXXX" string we expect to find in the template. Let's pull that "XXXXXX" into a constant array, whose size we can get at compile time with ARRAY_SIZE().
Note that we probably can't just change this value, since callers will be feeding us a certain number of X's, but it hopefully makes the function itself easier to follow.
While we're here, let's do the same with the "letters" array (which we _could_ modify if we wanted to include more characters).
