ERT leaves behind socket files in /tmp folder

[larsevj]

What happened? (You can include a screenshot if it helps explain)

Probably after the introduction of ZMQ, it now sometimes happen that not all the socket files are properly cleaned up afterwards. Might happen if ERT crashes or similar.

As discussed, these are tmp files when using ipc protocol, in case of local driver. Not sure if it is necessary to delete them as a cleanup operation as they will be automatically deleted anyway 🤷
