mythfilldatabase should warn if it can't write to /tmp/mythtv_ddp_data

Reported by: mythtv@… Owned by: stuartm

Component: MythTV - Mythfilldatabase Version: 0.27-fixes

Description

If for some reason you have a /tmp/mythtv_ddp_data file laying around that is owned by some other user (or otherwise can't be written to) then mythfilldatabase simply uses the data in that file when running from the backend, and thus not actually doing what it's supposed to be doing.
