tests: avoid spurious failures in get-sysconf.test This change fixes the last bit of automake bug#10866. * tests/get-sysconf.test: When Homebrew spawns a build, even if from a project's VCS, it stages the files in a new temporary directory, instead of building directly from a VCS checkout. This behaviour was causing a spurious failure in this test, which expected to find either a ChangeLog file or a .git directory in the source directory (the former happening when the test was run from a distribution tarball, the latter when it was run from a git checkout). The Homebrew issue shows that these expectations are not truly warranted, so relax the test to just give a warning, not a failure, in case they do not hold. Since we are at it, fix an unrelated weakness in the displaying of the git log, which could have failed when the builddir was not a subdirectory of the srcdir.
