[QGIS-Developer] Flatgeobuf for processing

[Alexander Bruy]

Not sure this makes much sense. Now Processing stores temporary
results as memory layers and uses .shp/.geopackage as intermediate
format because these formats are compatible with wast majority of 3rd
party tools.

If we will use flatgeobuf, we will need convert back and forth all the time
when 3rd party tools are involved, this may significantly increase processing
time. Also as flatgeobuf does not provide random write capability it can be
slow in some cases.
