test-lib.sh: do tests for color support after changing HOME
If ncurses needs ~/.terminfo for the current $TERM, then tput will succeed before changing HOME to $TRASH_DIRECTORY but fail afterward. Move the tests that determine whether there is color support after changing HOME so that color=t is set if and only if tput would succeed when say_color() is run. Note that color=t is now set after --no-color is processed, so the condition to set color=t has changed: it is now set only if color has not already been set to the empty string by --no-color. This disables color support for those that need ~/.terminfo for their TERM, but it's better than filling the screen with: tput: unknown terminal "custom-terminal-name-here" An alternative would be to symlink or copy the user's terminfo database into $TRASH_DIRECTORY, but this is tricky due to the lack of a standard name for the terminfo database (for example, instead of a ~/.terminfo directory, NetBSD uses a ~/.terminfo.cdb database file).
