build: Add a Guile custom test driver using SRFI-64.
Before that '.log' files for scheme tests were fragmented and not included in test-suite.log. This unifies the semantics of SRFI-64 API with Automake test suite. * build-aux/test-driver.scm: New file. * Makefile.am (SCM_LOG_DRIVER, AM_SCM_LOG_DRIVER_FLAGS): New variables. (SCM_LOG_COMPILER, AM_SCM_LOG_FLAGS): Delete variables. (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Set GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE to 0. * test-env.in: Silence guix-daemon. * doc/guix.texi (Running the Test Suite): Describe how to display the detailed results. Bug reports require only 'test-suite.log' file. * tests/base32.scm, tests/build-utils.scm, tests/builders.scm, tests/challenge.scm, tests/cpan.scm, tests/cpio.scm, tests/cran.scm, tests/cve.scm, tests/derivations.scm, tests/elpa.scm, tests/file-systems.scm, tests/gem.scm, tests/gexp.scm, tests/gnu-maintenance.scm, tests/grafts.scm, tests/graph.scm, tests/gremlin.scm, tests/hackage.scm, tests/hash.scm, tests/import-utils.scm, tests/lint.scm, tests/monads.scm, tests/nar.scm, tests/packages.scm, tests/pk-crypto.scm, tests/pki.scm, tests/profiles.scm, tests/publish.scm, tests/pypi.scm, tests/records.scm, tests/scripts-build.scm, tests/scripts.scm, tests/services.scm, tests/sets.scm, tests/size.scm, tests/snix.scm, tests/store.scm, tests/substitute.scm, tests/syscalls.scm, tests/system.scm, tests/ui.scm, tests/union.scm, tests/upstream.scm, tests/utils.scm: Don't exit at the end of test groups. * tests/containers.scm: Likewise. Use 'test-skip' instead of exiting with error code 77.
