[sysprof] memfd: add workaround for systems without memfd

[Christian Hergert <chergert src gnome org>]

    memfd: add workaround for systems without memfd
    
    Just a quick workaround to use a tmpfile if memfd is not available. We
    should try to ensure that we get something on tmpfs, but this is probably
    good enough for a fallback.
