Multer 2.0 doesn't work with Node.js 16.0 due to semver-major upgrade

For file uploading to the cloud, I'm using Multer ("multer": "^2.0.0-rc.2"). With Node.js 15.3.0 everything is working great, after upgrading to 16.0.0 (starting end of March 2021) I'm getting the following error:

node:internal/process/promises:245
          triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
          ^

TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string or an instance of Buffer or URL. Received null

  code: 'ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE'
}

Process finished with exit code 1

When I'm rolling back to 15.3.0 no error occurs.
After some investigation, I've found out that the source of the issue is await asyncUpload(req, res);.
The code snippet:

const _upload = multer({
	limits: {
		fileSize: CONFIG_STORAGE.uploader.maxFileSizeInBytes
	}
}).single("file");

const asyncUpload = promisify(_upload);
await asyncUpload(req, res);

At Node.js thread I've got a response that the change nodejs/node#35187 has broken some compatibility and Multer has to be adjusted to be able to work with Node.js 16.0+

Actually, this bug is in fs‑temp, which passes null as the path parameter: https://github.com/LinusU/fs-temp/blob/c892a4786eb7e6669076649ad9c6e2cb3631a037/lib/write-stream.js#L6

I've filled an issue LinusU/fs-temp#5 for fs-temp.
Once an update will be released, there is a need to update dependencies by Multer.

This is fixed in fs-temp 2.0.0 and Multer 2.0.0-rc.3 ✅
