Mario Fetka f214e89d69 tests: add Novell DOS tool baseline suite

Add DOS-side baseline scripts for the Novell tools used to compare the
reimplemented public utilities.

The suite covers the current baseline set:

  MAP
  SLIST
  WHOAMI
  LOGIN / LOGOUT
  NDIR
  NCOPY
  FLAG
  FLAGDIR
  CREATOR
  RIGHTS
  GRANT
  REVOKE
  REMOVE

It also includes supporting trustee, rights, rename, move, delete and
file-operation tests.

Each test writes reproducible output into a per-tool CMP directory and
provides a matching ZIP helper for collecting the results. The ZIP
helpers clean generated test trees afterwards so SYS: does not keep
accumulating temporary directories.

This is the Novell baseline layer only. A later change can extend the
same scripts to run the full comparison cycle:

  NPUBLIC baseline -> PUBLIC implementation -> NPUBLIC control

REVOKE baseline test

Scripts:

RVKSTA.BAT creates F:\RVKTEST, uses Novell \NPUBLIC\GRANT for setup, then captures Novell \NPUBLIC\REVOKE output into F:\RVKCMP\OUT. User MARIO is used as trustee target.
RVKZIP.BAT packages RUN.LOG, SUMMARY.TXT, SETUP, and OUT as F:\RVKCMP\RVKSTA.ZIP.

Run as SUPERVISOR or an equivalent user with Access Control rights on F:\RVKTEST.

Covered cases:

help and no-argument grammar
normal directory revoke
ALL revoke / trustee removal
/SUBDIRECTORIES with trustees placed directly on child directories
/FILES on an explicit file and on a directory file set
relative path invocation from inside the test directory while invoking \NPUBLIC\REVOKE absolutely
no trustee, missing user, missing path behavior, /FILES plus /SUBDIRECTORIES option-combination behavior, and bad grammar

This test is still Novell-baseline-only. Later comparison scripts should run the same command set through NPUBLIC and PUBLIC with normalized output.

Notes from the first baseline run:

REVOKE /SUBDIRECTORIES did not exercise child paths unless trustees existed on the child directories themselves, so D20 now uses SUBTST\S1 and SUBTST\S2 with direct trustee setup.
Novell REVOKE may report No trustee for the specified directory. for a missing path before a separate missing-path diagnostic is reached; D92 records that baseline behavior.
D93 now uses an independent tree with directory, file, and subdirectory trustees so the /FILES /SUBDIRECTORIES option combination is tested without being masked by missing trustee setup. Retest focus after the fix:
D20_SUBDIRS_REVOKE_CE.OUT should no longer be masked by a missing trustee on the named root.
D92_MISSING_PATH.OUT records the exact Novell diagnostic for a missing path, even if that diagnostic is still No trustee for the specified directory.
D93_FILES_AND_SUBDIRS.OUT runs on a prepared tree with directory, file, and subdirectory trustees, so the /FILES /SUBDIRECTORIES combination is no longer masked by setup.
