Fixture chaining using tmpdir

The built-in tmpdir fixture is very useful when dealing with files in setup and teardown. tmpdir combines seamlessly with user defined fixture via fixture chaining.

In this exercise, you will use the power of tmpdir to redefine and improve the empty_file() fixture that you wrote in the last exercise and get some experience with fixture chaining.
