run-tests: also follow symlink when update PATH with 'run-tests.py' dir

I'm using 'run-tests.py' from my '$PATH' and use a symlink to get 'run-tests.py'
to in that '$PATH'. There is a handful of test helpers (like f) that needs to be
in the '$PATH' for the test to run, and they are expected to live next to the
'run-tests.py' binary. Using a symlink confuses this logic, so we add to the
'$PATH' both the 'run-tests.py' executable directory, and the actual file
location direction.

"""test line matching with some failing examples and some which warn

run-test.t only checks positive matches and can not see warnings
(both by design)
