The extra directory level may break some tests that refer to their
precomputed test vectors in ../tXXXX, but I think they should be fixed
regardless.  That's what $TEST_DIRECTORY is for.

I'd very much prefer having 't/trash directory/t1234-test-name/' so that
we can say "make clean" to clean "t/trash directory" in one go.
