test: simplify test-amend.t to avoid race condition

Insted on relying on sleep, we could simply have the editor do the file change.
This remove the reliance on "sleep" and avoid test failing on heavy load
machine.

To test this, I reverted the code change in 5558e3437872 and the test started
failing again.

This directory is meant to cache artifacts useful for tests (such as bundle).

Those artifacts need to be cached because they are slow to regenerate on each
test but too large to be tracked within the repository. They are not expected
to change between each run and can be cached.

The `./scripts/` contains code to generate the artifact while the `cache`
directory contains resulting artifact.
