t: better support for out-of-tree builds
Our in-tree builds used by the Makefile use various different build directories scattered around different locations. The paths to those build directories have to be propagated to our tests such that they can find the contained files. This is done via a mixture of hardcoded paths in our test library and injected variables in our bin-wrappers or "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS". The latter two mechanisms are preferable over using hardcoded paths. For one, we have all paths which are subject to change stored in a small set of central files instead of having the knowledge of build paths in many files. And second, it allows build systems which build files elsewhere to adapt those paths based on their own needs. This is especially nice in the context of build systems that use out-of-tree builds like CMake or Meson. Remove hardcoded knowledge of build paths from our test library and move it into our bin-wrappers and "GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS".
