tests: test for problems with long matches
The new test is expensive, so add a category of expensive tests,
which are normally not run, and put the new test in this new
category. The idea of having expensive tests is taken from coreutils.
* HACKING: Mention RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS and similar env vars.
* Makefile.am (check-expensive): New rule.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add big-match.
* tests/init.cfg (expensive_): New function, from coreutils.
* tests/big-match: New file.
