Description
This rewrites the
pkg/sshtests to exercise behaviour throughssh.Translator.Translate. It addstestutils.StubSSHininternal/testutils. This puts a fakesshonPATH, built from the running test binary. Now each test describes what a caller sees.The test package's
TestMainneeds to callRunFakeSSHIfRequested. It only acts when the binary runs asssh. This is groundwork for adding comprehensivepkg/repositorytests in #274. No production code changes.
