system information in test-suite.log? |

I had the idea that it would be helpful to put basic system information
into test-suite.log, as shown below. Although most people reporting bugs
are good about including their system info, not everyone does. And
details are good.
I figured the output of uname -a and /etc/os-release || /etc/issue would
be enough to go on. That certainly won't cover all systems, but if
nothing shows up, we'll be no worse off. I eliminated the local host
name from uname -a for privacy, just in case. I don't think anything
else in there is at all problematic.
I don't think anything anything parses test-suite.log with such rigidity
that adding some lines near the beginning will cause problems, and
automake's own make check didn't care, but I guess I don't know for sure.
If anyone sees a problem with this, let me know. --thanks, karl.

I installed this change to emit system info in test-suite.log. I tried
to write it so any failure would be ignored, since it's not critical
information. We'll see. -k
