Tramp is just a library which offers alternative implementations for
Emacs functions. It does not document which functions it implements,
that's part of the Emacs doc.

I don't have Emacs 26.1 at hand, just 26.2. It documents
`make-nearby-temp-file' in:

- /etc/NEWS
- the elisp info, see (info "(elisp) Unique File Names") and
  (info "(elisp) Magic File Names")
