Re: [PATCH 2/4] stdbit-tests: new module

Hi Paul,

The file name prefix 'tst-' bothers me a bit, because

  * It is inconsistent with the prefix 'test-' that we've been using
    since 2003.

  * It causes more typing, because the autocompletion  t<TAB> → test
    no longer works (both in the source directory and in a builddir's
    gltests/ directory).

I would propose to rename the files to 'test-*' in Gnulib. They are
not likely to be modified frequently in glibc, therefore the gnulib <--> glibc
merge effort is likely zero. And annotate the mapping in config/srclist.txt
accordingly.

If you have objections to that, I would instead
  - move the tst-* files to a subdirectory, say from-glibc/,
  - change the module descriptions so that
      tests/from-glibc/tst-stdc_trailing_zeros.c
    is compiled to an executable named
      ${tests_prefix}/test-stdc_trailing_zeros${EXEEXT}.
So that the autocompletion again works.
