parallel-tests: Ensure backward-compatible semantics.

For each test in Automake's test suite that uses TESTS, generate
an identical one that uses the `parallel-tests' option, for
coverage of backward-compatible functionality.

* tests/gen-parallel-tests: New file, generates distributed
Makefile.am snippet tests/parallel-tests.am to list all tests
that use the TESTS interface but not yet the `parallel-tests'
option, with names mangled to use suffix `-p.test', in ...
(parallel_tests): ... this new make macro.
* tests/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/parallel-tests.am)
($(parallel_tests), defs-p): New rules.
(TESTS): Add check11.test and $(parallel_tests).
(check_SCRIPTS): Add defs-p, $(parallel_tests).
(check-clean-local): Remove `defs-p'.
(EXTRA_DIST): Distribute gen-parallel-tests.
(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): New variable, remove $(parallel_tests).
* bootstrap: Generate parallel-tests.am.
* tests/check8.test: Check for circular dependencies in rules.
* tests/check11.test: New test, check that SKIPs are not counted
as passed tests.
* tests/defs.in: Unset DISABLE_HARD_ERRORS, LAZY_TEST_SUITE,
VERBOSE, so the tests are not influenced by the way our test
suite is invoked.
