TestMethods::invokeTest() has an outer loop on global data (albeit
with a comment that said otherwise). On its first cycle, we run the
test function's *_data() method, if it has one; there is an inner loop
on the rows this created. If the *_data() QSKIP()s, we need to skip
the whole test; otherwise, a QSKIP() in one sub-test should not lead
to skipping the remaining sub-tests.
Moved the check for *_data() QSKIP()ping to right after *_data()
returns, inside the "first global cycle" block that runs it.
Previously, this check was done before entering the loop on local data
rows, but outside that "first global cycle" block: consequently, later
global cycles would fall foul of this check (even though the *_data()
hasn't been run in this cycle, much less QSKIP()ped in it) if the last
sub-test of the previous global cycle had QSKIP()ped.
When running a single test for one specific data row, if the test's
*_data() QSKIP()ped, this misplaced check would also have lead to a
misleading "Unknown testdata" warning.
Changed testlib/selftests' tst_globaldata::skipSingle() to trigger the
bug (by having its last local row of first global row skip, which
caused the second global row to be omitted) to verify this is also
fixed; and amended one of its comments to reflect what's now to be
expected. Updated the test's expected output files.

In particular, document the mis-behavior it takes for granted in one
test. Renamed some variables so that they're visually distinct from
one another and actually mean something intelligible. Renamed the
sub-tests to say what's actually happening. Reading the test output
now at least makes it possible to see what's wrong. I'll fix that in
a later commit.

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.
