test-lib: support running tests under valgrind in parallel
With the new --valgrind-parallel=<n> option, we support running the tests in a single test script under valgrind in parallel using 'n' processes. This really follows the dumbest approach possible, as follows: * We spawn the test script 'n' times, using a throw-away TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY. Each of the instances is given options that ensures that it only runs every n-th test under valgrind, but together they cover the entire range. * We add up the numbers from the individual tests, and provide the usual output. This is really a gross hack at this point, and should be improved. In particular we should keep the actual outputs somewhere more easily discoverable, and summarize them to the user. Nevertheless, this is already workable and gives a speedup of more than 2 on a dual-core (hyperthreaded) machine, using n=4. This is expected since the overhead of valgrind is so big (on the order of 20x under good conditions, and a large startup overhead at every git invocation) that redundantly running the non-valgrind tests in between is not that expensive.
