Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Prepare RC: write generated Maven settings outside the
 repo

.release-settings.xml was created in the repo root before mvn deploy
-Papache-release ran, which activates the RAT check. RAT flagged the
generated file for a missing ASF license header and failed the deploy.

Use mktemp under RUNNER_TEMP (with TMPDIR / /tmp fallbacks) so the file
lives outside the tree RAT scans, and guard the EXIT trap with
${settings_file:-} in case the script exits before the variable is set.
