test-lib: set ASAN_OPTIONS variable before we run git
We turn off ASan's leak detection by default in the test
suite because it's too noisy. But we don't do so until
part-way through test-lib. This is before we've run any
tests, but after we do our initial "./git" to see if the
binary has even been built.
When built with clang, this seems to work fine. However,
using "gcc -fsanitize=address", the leak checker seems to
complain more aggressively:
$ ./git
...
==5352==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
Direct leak of 2 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
#0 0x7f120e7afcf8 in malloc (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libasan.so.3+0xc1cf8)
#1 0x559fc2a3ce41 in do_xmalloc /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:60

#3 0x559fc2a3d0ad in xmallocz /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:108
#4 0x559fc2a3d0ad in xmemdupz /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:124
#5 0x559fc2a3d0ad in xstrndup /home/peff/compile/git/wrapper.c:130
#6 0x559fc274535a in main /home/peff/compile/git/common-main.c:39
#7 0x7f120dabd2b0 in __libc_start_main (/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6+0x202b0)
This is a leak in the sense that we never free it, but it's
in a global that is meant to last the whole program. So it's
not really interesting or in need of fixing. And at any
rate, mentioning leaks outside of the test_expect blocks is
certainly unwelcome, as it pollutes stderr.
Let's bump the setting of ASAN_OPTIONS higher in test-lib.sh
to catch our initial "can we even run git?" test. While
we're at it, we can add a comment to make it a bit less
inscrutable.
