I've been carrying it as a SQUASH??? patch, but I think it is better
to split it as a separate pach, as removal of $remove_trash is an
optional thing.  The main thing, i.e. SZEDER's "abort when trash is
already gone or when we cannot remove" _can_ be (and is) correctly
done with his pach alone.

So here is what I queued on top.

Subject: [PATCH] test-lib: retire $remove_trash variable

The convention "$remove_trash is set to the trash directory that is
used during the test, so that it will be removed at the end, but
under --debug option we set the varilable to empty string to
preserve the directory" made sense back when it was introduced, as
there was no $TRASH_DIRECTORY variable.  These days, since no tests
looks at the variable, it is obscure and even risks that by mistake
the variable gets used for something else (e.g. remove_trash=yes)
and cause us misbehave.

Rewrite the clean-up sequence in test_done helper to explicitly
check the $debug condition and remove the trash directory using
the $TRASH_DIRECTORY variable.

Note that "go to the directory one level above the trash and then
remove it" is kept and this is deliverate; test_at_end_hook_ will
keep running from the expected location, and also some platforms may
not like a directory that is serving as the $cwd of a still-active
process removed.

We _might_ want to rewrite

    cd "$(dirname "$TRASH_DIRECTORY")"

further to

    cd "$TRASH_DIRECTORY/.."

to lose one extra process, but let's leave it to a later patch.
