[PATCH v3 0/3] test-lib-functions.sh: keep user's HOME, TERM and SHELL for 'test_pause' and 'debug'

["Philippe Blain via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

Changes since v2:

 * Added '-a' flag as suggested by Elijah, equivalent to '-t -s -h' for
   'test_pause' and to '-t -h' for 'debug'

v2:

 * added 1/3 as a preliminary step to use TEST_SHELL_PATH in test_pause
   instead of SHELL_PATH, as suggested by Carlo
 * implemented the change in behaviour through optional flags in both
   test_pause and debug. This seemed to be the simplest way to keep the
   current behaviour but also provide a way to improve the UX.

v1: This series proposes two small quality-of-life improvements (in my
opinion) to the 'test_pause' and 'debug' test functions: using the original
values of HOME and TERM (before they are changed by the test framework) and
using SHELL instead of SHELL_PATH.

The later might be too big of a change, but I think it makes sense. We could
add a new GIT_TEST_* to conditionnaly change the behaviour, but I kept it
simple for v1.

Cheers, Philippe.
