1. tests: Rework tests/installed → tests/kola …

   Previously we made an effort to use the [Fedora Standard Test Interface](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/ci/standard-test-interface/).
   This effort was not very successful; the primary thing that
   it really died on is Ansible just didn't support rebooting
   very well.  I think that's since gotten better, but even
   then, Ansible wasn't the best thing for a test framework
   for us anyways.
   
   In the meantime Fedora CoreOS happened emphasizing Ignition
   and not "post-hoc reconciliation" models like Ansible over
   ssh.
   
   And, [coreos-assembler](https://github.com/coreos/coreos-assembler) happened too.
   
   Furthermore, we really need to test OSTree's interaction
   with Ignition as we've invented several special things there.
   
   Then most recently, I've been working on having
   cosa/kola support running externally defined tests:
   coreos/coreos-assembler#1215
   
   There's a lot of things to clean up after this but at least this
   works for me:
   
   ```
   $ cd /srv/fcos
   $ cosa kola run -- --parallel 4 --output-dir tmp/kola -E ~/src/github/ostreedev/ostree/ 'ext.ostree.*'
   ```
   
   NOTE: This *does not* drop ostree binaries into the target.  See:
   coreos/coreos-assembler#1252 (comment)
   
   This drops our dependency on Python in the installed tests, and
   also fixes a few bugs that came up.
   
   I disabled the `itest-bare-user-root.sh` one because it's
   entangled with the shell script infrastructure for the unit tests.
