This makes it possible to pass arguments to g_test_init via mesons
--test-args. This can be useful when one wants to run a single test with
`meson test testlibrary --test-args='-p /context'.
As discussed in #5695, I think we're reaching a point where removing
Autotools is preferable to fixing it.
1.14.x continues to use Autotools, so platforms whose Meson version is
too old can stay on that branch until it becomes unsupported. We have
a very conservative Meson dependency (Ubuntu 20.04).

These days we don't really need xattrs for the tests to run,
so move the test runs to /tmp, which brings down make check time
from 5 to 3.5 minutes on my machine.

This reverts commit 0648452fca5cffaeec47c415f9e040ffad7df9c5.
Unfortunately, it appears we still need xattrs on the system cache.
