fa8cffa4c9 testlib: Pass on file location on failure, but don't assume we have one
We try our best to pass on the file location of a failure, including for
fatal errors, but the reporting or logging machinery should not assume
there is one.

By passing on nullptr for the file location we allow the logging backends
to decide how to handle the situation, e.g. by not emitting extra fields
for failure location.

This effectively reverts c25687fa0b,
in favor of relying on the backends to cope with null filename,
which they already did.

As qFatal uses QMessageLogger, which by default disables file/line
information in release builds, we need to explicitly enable this in
our self-tests, to get uniform test results. Similarly, we disable
file/line info from testlib itself, as reporting Qt internal file
and line information for user diagnostics is less useful. The odd
one out there is qtestdata.cpp, which still ends up in test output
due to using QTEST_ASSERT instead of qFatal for its diagnostics.
Cleaning up that, and unifying how we report testlib issues to the
user, is left for another day.

Pick-to: 6.2

3b42e098ef testlib: Add Test Anything Protocol (TAP) reporter
The Test Anything Protocol (TAP), was originally Perl's simple text-based
interface between testing modules and test harnesses, but has since been
adopted by a large number of producers and consumers in many different
languages, which allows colorizing and summarizing test results.

The format is very simple:

TAP version 13
ok 1 - test description
not ok 2 - test description
  ---
  message: 'Failure message'
  severity: fail
  expected: 123
  actual: 456
  ...
ok 3 - test description # SKIP
1..3

The specification [1] is very brief, so the implementation has been
based on how typical consumers behave, especially when it comes to
the undefined diagnostics block.
