a58a8d2e97 test: document specifying individual test files as operands
The current command will run this entire set of tests, which takes a
noticeable amount of time. Contributors may wish to run only a subset of
these tests to save time/compute (e.g. when iterating on a CL that
failed tests in that subset). Listing file(s) as operands to the command
will run only those tests.

ec0b8c0585 test: use the version of Go used to run run.go
Currently, the top-level testsuite always uses whatever version
of Go is found in the PATH to execute all the tests. This
forces the developers to tweak the PATH to run the testsuite.

Change it to use the same version of Go used to run run.go.
This allows developers to run the testsuite using the tip
compiler by simply saying "../bin/go run run.go".

I think this is a better solution compared to always forcing
"../bin/go", because it allows developers to run the testsuite
using different Go versions, for instance to check if a new
test is fixed in tip compared to the installed compiler.

Fixes #24217
