Remove output file in temporary folder on error
This commit solves two issues: (1) A PDF from a previous run could have been the result of a command that exited with error (e.g. sometimes pdflatex still produces a PDF if it exits with error). If the "View" button were clicked a second time without changing the .lyx file, then the checksum of the .tex file would not have changed so LyX would show the PDF (which was created from the first run that exited with error), and this time LyX would not report the error (because the parsing of the logs only happens when the .tex file is compiled). (2) A myfile.tex that results in no output does not yield a myfile.pdf. Thus, Any myfile.pdf in the temporary directory will not be overwritten. Before this commit, the following scenario was possible: LyX runs pdflatex which processes myfile.tex and no error is given so LyX opens myfile.pdf. However, it could have been the scenario that pdflatex did not exit with error and did not create myfile.pdf, in which case whichever myfile.pdf is being shown is not correct. To see this bug in action, start a new document, type "abc", view the PDF, delete "abc", view the PDF (this correctly gives an error that empty output was created), view the PDF again (this does not give an error because the checksum has not changed). The PDF shown will contain "abc". Note that the above also applies to DVI files and that the fix is general.
