maint.mk: improve empty-line-at-EOF check
* top/maint.mk (sc_prohibit_empty_lines_at_EOF): Use Perl-based
solution, rather than tail+Perl-based one. The latter would read
a few kilobytes from the end of each file, and did not handle empty
files properly.

init.sh: run tr in the "C" locale to avoid multibyte interpretation
* tests/init.sh (rand_bytes_): Run tr in the "C" locale so it does
not try to interpret its random input bytes. Jarno Rajahalme reported
that ./test-xalloc-die.sh would fail with "tr: Illegal byte sequence"
on Darwin 10.3.0 with LC_CTYPE=UTF-8.
(mktempd_): Likewise, just in case.

ftruncate: mark module as obsolete; even MinGW provides it, now
* modules/ftruncate (Status): Obsolete.
(Notice): Say that.
* doc/posix-functions/ftruncate.texi: Don't say MinGW lacks it.

maint.mk: add a PATH crosschecking syntax-check rule
* top/maint.mk (sc_cross_check_PATH_usage_in_tests): New rule.
Useful if you use a test like the one in help-version (coreutils,
diffutils, grep, gzip) that ensures $(VERSION) matches what is
printed by prog --version.

init.sh: simply unset TMPDIR rather than risking env -i
* tests/init.sh (mktempd_): Using env -i is rather harsh, and
although it probably works fine on all Unix-based systems, some
systems (Cygwin?) cannot tolerate a totally cleared environment.
Suggestion from Eric Blake.
