Dragging and dropping an image file will leave a copy of the dragged image behind in /tmp/dnd_file folder.
The copy is deleted after 16.6 minutes, assuming Firefox is still running at that point. If Firefox has been closed before the timeout, the copy is never removed.
Tested on Ubuntu 18.04, where this happens ONLY with Unity Desktop. Gnome and KDE are not affected.
The bug seems to have appeared somewhere between Firefox 91 (not affected) and 100 (affected).
The likely culprit seems to be patch https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/3b98ceafb59a for Firefox 96.
The oddly long timeout is likely result of using NS_DND_TIMEOUT (which is in microseconds) for g_timeout_add that expects milliseconds.
But why Unity creates the tmp files in the first place, while Gnome and KDE appear not to, is not clear to me.

I do see that on Gnome too, it depends on actual D&D target.

- Use 5 min timeout value to mTempFileTimerID so D&D files from /tmp are removed after a longer period.
- Remove all temporary files from nsDragService destructor.
- Add more logs.
