pararameterisation is not actually needed the way things are currently
set up, and it confused me when trying to understand what the code does.
all but one test sources vars-and-functions.sh, which nominally only
defines variables, but in practice is always coupled with the actual
initialisation. while the cleaner way of making this more legible would
be to source variables and initialisation separately, this would produce
a huge diff.
the change requires a few small fixes to keep the tests working:
- only create test home directory during initialisation
that vars-and-functions.sh wrote to the file system seems not write
- fix creation of the test directory
due to statefulness, the test home directory was implicitly creating
the test root, too. decoupling that made it apparent that this was
probably not intentional, and certainly confusing.
- only source vars-and-functions.sh if init.sh is not needed
there is one test case that only needs a helper function but no
initialisation side effects
- remove some unnecessary cleanups and split parts of re-used test code
there were confusing bits in how initialisation code was repurposed,
which break if trying to refactor the outer layers naively...
This probably snuck in in a refactor using truthiness or so. The
trustedness flag was having the optional fullness checked, rather than
the actual contained trust level.
Also adds some tests.

I think it is bad for these reasons when `tests/` contains a mix of
functional and integration tests
- Concepts is harder to understand, the documentation makes a good
unit vs functional vs integration distinction, but when the
integration tests are just two subdirs within `tests/` this is not
clear.
- Source filtering in the `flake.nix` is more complex. We need to
filter out some of the dirs from `tests/`, rather than simply pick
the dirs we want and take all of them. This is a good sign the
structure of what we are trying to do is not matching the structure
of the files.
With this change we have a clean:
```shell-session
$ git show 'HEAD:tests'
tree HEAD:tests
functional/
installer/
nixos/
```
