From https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/Mediawiki_Database_abstraction_layer_wrapper_functions:_how_to_CREATE_TEMPORARY_TABLE a developer was able to get temporary tables in a db agnostic fashion by using Database::duplicateTableStructure(). In the underlying code, most databases seem to do something like CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE. This should code should be refactored so that we have Database::createTemporaryTable().

[mediawiki/core@master] database: Introduce creation/deletion of temporary tables in MySQL
Change 490679 abandoned by D3r1ck01:
rdbms: Introduce creation/deletion of temporary tables for MySQL
Reason:
I can safely abandon this now! Next time, I'll use [DNM] or [DNR] for such cases.
Declining for now. If this feature request is still needed or if current mechanisms don't support temporary table in the way needed, feel free to reopen or file a new task.
