[PATCH 5/8] t9160: use test_path_is_missing()

From

Message-ID
<572d12a5fb4777b10417bb4fc7e38954796a8404.1587372771.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1587372771.git.liu.denton@gmail.com>

The test_must_fail() function should only be used for git commands since we assume that external commands work sanely. Since, not only should this file not exist, but there shouldn't exit _any_ filesystem entity in these paths, replace `test_must_fail test -f` with `test_path_is_missing`.
