runtime(syntax-tests): Introduce self tests for screen dumping

Write a batch of test files with made-up syntax to serve for
additional linewise checks to be manually performed whenever
the algorithm for screen dump file generation is modified.

Define a shell variable VIM_SYNTAX_SELF_TESTING to run these
tests:
	cd runtime/syntax/
	VIM_SYNTAX_SELF_TESTING=1 make clean test

The test files with made-up syntax in this directory serve for additional
linewise checks to be manually performed whenever the algorithm managing
screen dump file generation is modified (../../runtest.vim#RunTest()).
This is mainly used for debugging and testing the syntax test suite.
Please test any changes as follows:
cd runtime/syntax/
VIM_SYNTAX_SELF_TESTING=1 make clean test
