run-tests: update .t reference output after reading the test The .t file is both test input and reference output. They should always match. However we have different code paths to read reference output (Test.__init__ -> Test.readrefout) and test input (TTest._run) so they might be inconsistent if somethings change the file between those two functions. This patch assigns "lines" read by "_run" back to "_refout" if "_refout" is not None (with --debug, see Test.readrefout) so reference output and test input will always match.

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
