d27e2d87b95b7982c05b4c88e463cc9626ab9f0a test: test_bitcoin: allow -testdatadir=<datadir> (Larry Ruane)

Pull request description:

  This backward-compatible change would help with code review, testing, and debugging. When `test_bitcoin` runs, it creates a working or data directory within `/tmp/test_common_Bitcoin\ Core/`, named as a long random (hex) string.

  This small patch does three things:

  - If the (new) argument `-testdatadir=<datadir>` is given, use `<datadir>/test_temp/<test-name>/datadir` as the working directory
  - When the test starts, remove `<datadir>/test_temp/<test-name>/datadir` if it exists from an earlier run (currently, it's presumed not to exist due to the long random string)
  - Don't delete the working directory at the end of the test if a custom data directory is being used

  Example usage, which will remove, create, use `/somewhere/test_temp/getarg_tests/boolarg`, and leave it afterward:
  ```
  $ test_bitcoin --run_test=getarg_tests/boolarg -- -testdatadir=/somewhere
  Running 1 test case...
  Test directory (will not be deleted): "/somewhere/test_temp/getarg_tests/boolarg/datadir"

  *** No errors detected
  $ ls -l /somewhere/test_temp/getarg_tests/boolarg/datadir
  total 8

  -rw-rw-r-- 1 larry larry 1273 Feb 22 10:28 debug.log
  ```
  (A relative pathname also works.)

  This change affects only `test_bitcoin`; it could also be applied to `test_bitcoin-qt` but that's slightly more involved so I'm skipping that for now.

  The rationale for this change is that, when running the test using the debugger, it's often useful to watch `debug.log` as the test runs and inspect some of the other files (I've looked at the generated `blknnnn.dat` files for example). Currently, that requires figuring out where the test's working directory is since it changes on every test run. Tests can be run with `-printtoconsole=1` to show debug logging to the terminal, but it's nice to keep `debug.log` continuously open in an editor, for example.

  Even if not using a debugger, it's sometimes helpful to see `debug.log` and other artifacts after the test completes.

  Similar functionality is already possible with the functional tests using the `--tmpdir=` and `--nocleanup` arguments.

    ACK d27e2d87b95b7982c05b4c88e463cc9626ab9f0a! (Already did some testing with `fs::remove()` to make sure it was compatible with the `util::Lock/UnlockDirectory` implementation).
  marcofleon:
    ACK d27e2d87b95b7982c05b4c88e463cc9626ab9f0a. I ran all the tests with my previous open file limit and no errors were detected. Also ran some individual tests with no, relative, and absolute paths and everything looks good.
