[PATCH] Allow CTDB's TEST_VAR_DIR variable to be relative

[Martin Schwenke]

Forcing TEST_VAR_DIR to be absolute can make path of Unix domain
sockets too long in some test suites.  The maximum is only 108
characters, as per /usr/include/linux/un.h:

#define UNIX_PATH_MAX	108

However, we need to be careful to make sure correct paths are used when
creating symbolic links.  For simplicity, we make the links target
absolute.  There are a couple of other similar issues in the test code.

So, fix the potential issues when TEST_VAR_DIR is relative, and then
allow TEST_VAR_DIR to be relative.

Please review and maybe push...

peace & happiness,
martin
