Replace strange $TEST_FUNCTIONS variable/expansion thing with
something more like what we use in nbdkit, a simple tests/functions.sh
script that gets sourced into each test script.
Update the common submodule to get:

mlcustomize, mltools: Replace $TEST_FUNCTIONS
TEST_FUNCTIONS is being removed from libguestfs and guestfs-tools (it
was removed from virt-v2v a while back). Make the same adjustment in
the common submodule.
(and some other commits which are not relevant to libguestfs)
Before this change the tests ran in about 12m34 and afterwards in
about 6m20, although the real change is more dramatic if you only run
tests from the tests/ subdirectory (as language tests still run serially).
This breaks valgrinding for now, which I intend to fix properly later.
Apply this change across all the shell scripts containing tests.
Additionally this defines the environment variables $abs_srcdir,
$abs_builddir, $top_srcdir, $top_builddir, $abs_top_srcdir and
$abs_top_builddir which can now be used throughout test scripts.
Run the following command over the source:
perl -pi.bak -e 's/(20[01][0-9])-2016/$1-2017/g' `git ls-files`
(Thanks Rich for the perl snippet, as used in past years.)
When possible, make the disk image format explicit when invoking tools
or using add-drive. This avoids warnings from qemu about the unspecified
format for the image, and also makes qemu slightly faster (skipping the
disk image probing).
Tests checking the image probing are not touched.
This changes also:
- old-style invocations of tools (`$tool $filename`) into new style
(`$tool -a $filename`)
- add-drive-ro/add-drive-with-if guestfish commands into add/add-drive
with explicit readonly/iface arguments
There should be no change in the tests results.
