Fixed now.

> 2. The org-babel-temporary-stable-directory is only created upon initial loading. But the intended behavior for remote paths seems to be to create the temp files on the remote. Which will fail, because org-babel-temporary-stable-directory does not exist on the remote. However creating the directories on remotes of course makes cleanup harder to impossible, if the remotes are not accessible any more.

For remotes, we fall back to org-babel-remote-temporary-directory.
Apparently in all but one place in code. Now fixed.

I am not sure if it is a good idea.
On remote files, default-directory often points to the remote making
`shell-command' and similar run code on remote machine. It may not work
well with local temporary directory.
