ebd0370976 tests: Unify some tmpdir code, add ability for C to use libtest.sh
I want to be able to easily test the C API on actual data in an OSTree
repo.  The shell `libtest.sh` has code to generate it.  Bridge the two
worlds by introducing a little `libostreetest` library which has a C
API which spawns a shell that runs things in `libtest.sh`.

Yes, this is about as beautiful as it sounds, which is to say, it's
not.  But it works!

Note while we were here, I realized we were actually now creating
*two* tmpdirs per test in `make check` because the tap driver was
already doing that.  Unify it so we know the C code can rely on it.

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.
