Make it easier to diagnose PATH-induced "make distcheck" failures.
* Makefile.maint (write_loser): Define.
(my-distcheck): Use an always-failing wrapper script, that gives
a diagnostic, not "false".
Run only "make -C tests check" with the restrictive PATH.
Run the new gnulib-tests/ with the usual PATH.
