Cygwin: testsuite: Drop using DejaGnu to run tests
A more sophisticated (and modern) test harness would probably be useful,
but switching to Automake's built-in test harness gets us parallel test
execution, colourization of failures, simplifies matters, seems adequate
for the current testuite, and means we don't need to write any icky Tcl.

Cygwin: testsuite: Drop Adminstrator privileges while running tests
Test access05 and symlink03 expect operations to fail which succeed when
we have Adminstrator privileges.

There's perhaps a bit of incoherency here: some XFAILed tests expect to
run as root (so maybe we need the ability to selectively cygdrop?).

Cygwin: testsuite: Setup test prereqs in 'installation' the tests run in
Do some setup in the Cygwin 'installation' at testsuite/testinst/:

* Ensure /tmp exists

* Use BusyBox to provide executables needed by tests which use system()
(sh, sleep, ls)

This enables tests which use system(), or require /tmp to exist to pass.

Johannes Schindelin 27376c60a9 Allow deriving the current user's home directory via the HOME variable
This patch hails from Git for Windows (where the Cygwin runtime is used
in the form of a slightly modified MSYS2 runtime), where it is a
well-established technique to let the `$HOME` variable define where the
current user's home directory is, falling back to `$HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH`
and `$USERPROFILE`.

The idea is that we want to share user-specific settings between
programs, whether they be Cygwin, MSYS2 or not.  Unfortunately, we
cannot blindly activate the "db_home: windows" setting because in some
setups, the user's home directory is set to a hidden directory via an
UNC path (\\share\some\hidden\folder$) -- something many programs
cannot handle correctly, e.g. `cmd.exe` and other native Windows
applications that users want to employ as Git helpers.

The established technique is to allow setting the user's home directory
via the environment variables mentioned above: `$HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH` or
`$USERPROFILE`.  This has the additional advantage that it is much
faster than querying the Windows user database.

Of course this scheme needs to be opt-in.  For that reason, it needs
to be activated explicitly via `db_home: env` in `/etc/nsswitch.conf`.

Corinna Vinschen c42b98bdc6 Cygwin: introduce /proc/codesets and /proc/locales
So far locale(1) had to have knowledge how to construct, thus
duplicating the effort how Cygwin handles locale strings.

Move locale list and codeset list generation into Cygwin by
providing /proc/codesets and /proc/locales files.  /proc/locales
does not list aliases, those are still handled in locale(1).

locale(1) opens the files and ueses that info for printing,
like any other application can do now.

Cygwin: configure: Add option to disable building 'dumper'
Rather than guessing, based on just the presence of libbfd, add an
explicit configuration option, to build dumper or not, defaulting to
building it.

This might have some use when bootstrapping Cygwin for a new
architecture, or when building your own Cygwin-targetted cross-compiler,
rather than installing one from the copr, along with the dependencies of
libbfd.

Originally the code was written to allow three ways of prefixing

has been disabled even before being officially released, and it was
never re-enabled. Given there has been no complaints for eight years
now, drop this code eventually.  Just add a macro to define the
domain/account separator statically.
