Eric Sunshine d00113ec34 t/Makefile: apply chainlint.pl to existing self-tests
Now that chainlint.pl is functional, take advantage of the existing
chainlint self-tests to validate its operation. (While at it, stop
validating chainlint.sed against the self-tests since it will soon be
retired.)

Due to chainlint.sed implementation limitations leaking into the
self-test "expect" files, a few of them require minor adjustment to make
them compatible with chainlint.pl which does not share those
limitations.

First, because `sed` does not provide any sort of real recursion,
chainlint.sed only emulates recursion into subshells, and each level of
recursion leads to a multiplicative increase in complexity of the `sed`
rules. To avoid substantial complexity, chainlint.sed, therefore, only
emulates subshell recursion one level deep. Any subshell deeper than
that is passed through as-is, which means that &&-chains are not checked
in deeper subshells. chainlint.pl, on the other hand, employs a proper
recursive descent parser, thus checks subshells to any depth and
correctly flags broken &&-chains in deep subshells.

Second, due to sed's line-oriented nature, chainlint.sed, by necessity,
folds multi-line quoted strings into a single line. chainlint.pl, on the
other hand, employs a proper lexical analyzer which preserves quoted
strings as-is, including embedded newlines.

Furthermore, the output of chainlint.sed and chainlint.pl do not match
precisely in terms of whitespace. However, since the purpose of the
self-checks is to verify that the ?!AMP?! annotations are being
correctly added, minor whitespace differences are immaterial. For this
reason, rather than adjusting whitespace in all existing self-test
"expect" files to match the new linter's output, the `check-chainlint`
target ignores whitespace differences. Since `diff -w` is not POSIX,
`check-chainlint` attempts to employ `git diff -w`, and only falls back
to non-POSIX `diff -w` (and `-u`) if `git diff` is not available.
