A UX improvement for LSAN stack traces. See
https://lore.kernel.org/git/cover-0.4-00000000000-20220218T205753Z-avarab@gmail.com/
for the v1.

I think this v2 should address all the comments on the v1, thanks
Taylor & Junio!

Changes:
 * Renamed XSAN_OPTIONS to GIT_XSAN_OPTIONS
 * The "prepend_var" now handles an empty $3, as suggested by Junio.
 * I added a new 2/4 updating the $TEST_DIRECTORY commentary to note
   that we depend on it pointing to *the* "t" directory.

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason (4):
  test-lib: add GIT_XSAN_OPTIONS, inherit [AL]SAN_OPTIONS
  test-lib: correct commentary on TEST_DIRECTORY overriding
  test-lib: make $GIT_BUILD_DIR an absolute path
  test-lib: add "fast_unwind_on_malloc=0" to LSAN_OPTIONS

Thanks; this version looks good to me, though I agree with Junio's
feedback on the first patch. TBH, I do not feel strongly at all about
"GIT_XSAN_OPTIONS" versus "GIT_SAN_OPTIONS", either seems fine to (with
a slight bias towards the first, since it makes it clear that it targets
both ASan and LSan).

But either way, this looks like it's almost there.

Thanks,
Taylor
