c7efe01520 Add --enable-installed-tests=exclusive, fix installed case
The major reason to do this is that running tests *both* installed
and uninstalled in our CI is a mostly pointless waste of time.
Particularly given we have a few expensive tests.

We *do* have tests that only run uninstalled (since they require
the source code) like `test-symbols.sh`.

Hence, add `--enable-installed-tests=exclusive` to mean *only* do installed for
most tests.

We'll still have uninstalled coverage via the Travis/Debian configs, and we
could perhaps do another build with a subset of uninstalled tests, but I'm not
really concerned about it.

I'd like to do a renewed push for the InstalledTests model since
I feel it's just fundamentally better.  (`g-d-t-r` kind of sucks,
but then so does the automake runner).

Also while we're here - fix the CI to use the correct context,
which started this mess.

Closes: #837

d25212f04a tests: Port to glib-tap.mk, make make check run all of the tests
OSTree's code for testing predates the `glib-tap.mk` making its
way into GLib.  Let's switch to it, as it provides a number
of advantages.

By far the biggest advantage is that `make check` can start to run
most of the tests *in addition* to having them work installed.

This commit keeps the installed tests working, but `make check` turns
out to be really broken because...our TAP usage has bitrotted to say
the least.  Fix that all up.

Do some hacks so that the tests work uninstalled as well - in
particular, `glib-tap.mk` and the bits encoded into
`g_test_build_filename()` assume *recursive* Automake (blah).  Work
around that by creating a symlink when installed to loop back.
