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.
I noticed in the static deltas tests, there were some tests that
should have been under `-o pipefail` to ensure we properly propagate
errors.
There were a few places where we were referencing undefined variables.
Overall, this is clearly a good idea IMO.
Eliminates the need for constantly passing --sysroot=sysroot, but
also makes ostree place remote configs for sysroot/ostree/repo in
sysroot/etc/ostree/remotes.d where they should have been all along.
Some operating systems may come with external tools for subscription
management that drive access to the content. In that case, the origin
file may not be useful (for example, it could refer to an installer
ISO).
This patch will allow OS installers to inject that state, with a
useful error message, directing the system administrator to an
external tool.
