tests: work around MinGW/MSYS issue in fd redirections
Some checks on $(AM_TESTS_FD_REDIRECT) were failing on MSYS, likely
because system calls like "write(9, ...)" simply doesn't work for
MinGW-compiled programs. Similar usages work for the shell scripts
though, since /bin/sh is an MSYS program and thus is a lot more
POSIX-ish than most MinGW-compiled programs.
The best fix for this issue is to separate the checks using shell
scripts as dummy test cases from the checks using compiled programs
for the same purpose, and skip these latter checks on MinGW.
This change fixes automake bug#10466. Report by Peter Rosin.
* tests/parallel-tests-fd-redirect.test: Move checks using compiled
C programs as test cases to ...
* tests/parallel-tests-fd-redirect-exeext.test: ... this new test.
* tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update.
