Meson uses a venerable GNU convention described in
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Scripts_002dbased-Testsuites.html
in which:
> When no test protocol is in use, an exit status of 0 from a test
> script will denote a success, an exit status of 77 a skipped test, an
> exit status of 99 a hard error, and any other exit status will denote
> a failure.
77 is thus what we want, not 99.
This tests the Nix language side of things.
We are purposely skipping most of `common.sh` because it is overkill for
this test: we don't want to have an "overfit" test environment.
