gh-143010: Prevent a TOCTOU issue by only calling open once (GH-143011)

RDM: per  AZero13's research the 'x' option did not exist when this code was written,  This
modernization can thus drop the fd trick in _create_carefully and just use open with 'x' to achieve the same goal more securely.
(cherry picked from commit a88d1b8dab4cbd3180dd7f1acb44d627db90323b)
