When running tests through `test-tool run-command testsuite`, we
currently hardcode `sh` as the command interpreter. As discussed in [1],
this is incorrect, and we should be using the shell set in
TEST_SHELL_PATH instead.

Add a shell_path field in struct testsuite so that we can pass this to
the task runner callback. If this is non-null, we'll use it as the
argv[0] of the subprocess. Otherwise, we'll just execute the test
program directly. We will use this feature in a later commit to enable
running binary executable unit tests.

However, for now when setting up the struct testsuite in testsuite(),
use the value of TEST_SHELL_PATH if it's set, otherwise keep the
original behavior by defaulting to `sh`.
