test-tool run-command testsuite: support unit tests

Teach the testsuite runner in `test-tool run-command testsuite` how to
run unit tests: if TEST_SHELL_PATH is not set, run the programs directly
from CWD, rather than defaulting to "sh" as an interpreter.

With this change, you can now use test-tool to run the unit tests:
$ make
$ cd t/unit-tests/bin
$ ../../helper/test-tool run-command testsuite

This should be helpful on Windows to allow running tests without
requiring Perl (for `prove`), as discussed in [1] and [2].

This again breaks backwards compatibility, as it is now required to set
TEST_SHELL_PATH properly for executing shell scripts, but again, as
noted in [2], there are no longer any such invocations in our codebase.
