The existing test_record is not easily extendable to add script files or
extension modules: it collects all files from fake_dists and generates a
RECORD file at runtime. I felt more comfortable adding a new test
written from scratch more self-contained (just one project with
well-defined files) and more stupid (the checksums and sizes are
computed once and hard-coded).
- Rename an attribute and create it in initialize_options instead of
finalize_options to match the other install_* classes
- Remove unnecessary method call in tests
I need to copy this file in another test too, so I moved the support
code to distutils.tests.support and improved it to use proper skip
machinery instead of custom print/return/test suite fiddling.
Contrary to my similar change in distutils tests, I did not add support
for finding xxmodule.c when running a test from the tests directory,
because in that case my compiler didn’t find Python.h, so I figured it’s
better to skip than to fail.
I made a note a month ago that install --record wrote incorrect entries
for extension modules (I think the problem was that the first character
of the file was stripped), so I’m now adding a test to try to reproduce
that in the current versions.

- don’t skip when run from the Lib/distutils/tests directory

If the version of zlib used to compile the zlib module is incompatible
with the one that is actually linked in, then calls into zlib will fail.
This can leave attributes of the z_stream uninitialized, so we must take
care to avoid segfaulting by trying to use an invalid pointer.
Fix by Richard M. Tew.
-j doesn't pass the memlimit on to child processes, so this doesn't work at
present, and even if it did, running multiple bigmem tests at once would
usually not be desirable (since you generally want to devote as much of the
available RAM as possible to each test).
