run-tests: auto-replace 'TXNID' output

Hooks related to the transaction are aware of the transaction id. By definition
this txn-id is unique and different for each transaction. As a result it can
never be predicted in test and always needs matching. As a result, touching any
like with this data is annoying. We solve the problem once and for all by
installing an automatic replacement. In test, this will now show as:

  TXNID=TXN:$ID$

#!/usr/bin/env python

from __future__ import absolute_import

__doc__ = """Same as `echo a >> b`, but ensures a changed mtime of b.
Without this svn will not detect workspace changes."""
