test-lib.sh: set prerequisite SANITY by testing what we really need

What we wanted out of the SANITY precondition is that the filesystem
behaves sensibly with permission bits settings.

 - You should not be able to remove a file in a read-only directory,

 - You should not be able to tell if a file in a directory exists if
   the directory lacks read or execute permission bits.

We used to cheat by approximating that condition with "is the /
writable?" test and/or "are we running as root?" test.  Neither test
is sufficient or appropriate in environments like Cygwin.
