getcwd tests: Avoid test failure when running under QEMU user-mode

[Bruno Haible]

In a QEMU user-mode environment (for various CPUs), the test-getcwd.sh test
fails, with exit code 5. This happens with qemu 6.1.0, but did not happen
with qemu 4.1.0 and older versions.

It's not easy to fix, because the code is involved. What I see, is that

  * The test invokes rpl_getcwd,

  * rpl_getcwd invokes the system's getcwd (under the fake name getcwd_system),
    which is in fact __getcwd from sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getcwd.c that
    calls __getcwd_generic from sysdeps/posix/getcwd.c). This glibc routine
    triggers the following system calls:

        getcwd(0x40001528,4096) = -1 errno=248 (File name too long)
        lstat64(".",0x400066c8) = 0
        lstat64("/",0x400066c8) = 0
        openat(AT_FDCWD,"..",O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE|O_CLOEXEC) = 4
        fstat64(4,0x400066c8) = 0
        fstat64(4,0x40006808) = 0
        fcntl64(4,F_GETFL) = 0
        fcntl64(4,F_SETFD,1) = 0
        brk(NULL) = 0x00015000
        brk(0x00036000) = 0x00036000
        getdents64(4,86448,32768,86408,2065,0) = 80
        close(4) = 0

    and the system's getcwd thus fails with errno = 248 = EOVERFLOW (!).
    rpl_getcwd then fails with errno = 2 = ENOENT.

It's too complex to fix this properly. So I just disable this test under QEMU.

        getcwd tests: Avoid test failure when running under QEMU user-mode.
        * modules/getcwd-tests (Files): Add qemu.h.
        (Depends-on): Add stdbool.
        * tests/test-getcwd.c: Include qemu.h.
        (test_long_name): Skip this test when running under QEMU user-mode.
        (main): Consider return code 77 from test_long_name.
