posix: move checkexec test file to .hg/cache

This avoids unnecessary churn in the working directory.

It is not necessarily a fully valid assumption that .hg/cache is on the same
filesystem as the working directory, but I think it is an acceptable
approximation. It could also be the case that different parts of the working
directory is on different mount points so checking in the root folder could
also be wrong.

# The test-repo is a live hg repository which may have evolution
# markers created, e.g. when a ~/.hgrc enabled evolution.
#
# Tests are run using a custom HGRCPATH, which do not
# enable evolution markers by default.
#
# If test-repo includes evolution markers, and we do not
# enable evolution markers, hg will occasionally complain
# when it notices them, which disrupts tests resulting in
# sporadic failures.
#
# Since we aren't performing any write operations on the
# test-repo, there's no harm in telling hg that we support
# evolution markers, which is what the following lines
# for the hgrc file do:
cat >> $HGRCPATH << EOF
[experimental]
evolution=createmarkers
