Deny direct HTTP access to the temp directory for Apache deployments by adding a dedicated .htaccess file.
The root .htaccess disables directory indexes and sets security headers, but it does not prevent direct access to known files below temp/. This change mirrors the existing deny-by-default approach used for attachments/ and helps prevent temporary files from being served directly by Apache when AllowOverride is enabled.
The temp/empty placeholder is removed because the new versioned temp/.htaccess file now keeps the temp directory present in the repository. The .gitignore rules are updated so temporary files remain ignored while temp/.htaccess stays tracked.
