ci: run out-of-tree system tests with pytest runner

Out-of-tree builds are built in a directory that is different from
source directory. The build directory doesn't contain the non-compiled
test files from bin/tests/system which are the test cases required by
the pytest runner.

In order to run the system tests for out-of-tree build, copy over the
contents (tests) of bin/tests/system/ from the source directory into the
build directory. Then, it is possible to invoke the pytest runner inside
the build directory.
