0251d44cc2 Make ./mk/run-test.sh work by itself; add mk/debug-test.sh
First, logic is consolidated in the shell script instead of being spread
between them and makefiles. That makes understanding what is going on a
little easier.

This would not be super interesting by itself, but it gives us a way to
debug tests more easily. *That* in turn I hope is much more compelling.
See the updated manual for details.

84bdb0e3ad address review feedback
Mainly:
- Try to triangulate between narrative that framed this as
  a new/easy process and the need for a reference that will
  not quickly grow stale.
- Fix a ~continuity issue where the text was talking about
  "your Cachix cache" before saying that you'd need to make
  a Cachix cache to enable the installer tests.
- Adopt suggestion on titling, and nest subtitles in the
  installer test section.

7c75f1d52b Expand the testing section of the hacking docs
- Make it clear what the different kind of tests are, where they live
  and how they can be ran
- Ask people to primarily write unit tests
