[PATCH v2 0/9] 'test_i18ngrep'-related fixes and improvements

["SZEDER Gábor" <szeder.dev@gmail.com>]

This is the second version of 'sg/test-i18ngrep'.

To recap, this patch series fixes a couple of bogus 'test_i18ngrep'
invocations (patches 1-4), tries to prevent similar bugs in the future
(patch 8), teaches 'test_i18ngrep' to be more informative on failure
(patch 9), and a bit of cleanups in between (patches 5-7).

Changes since the previous version [1]:

  - Use Junio's "last parameter must be file" suggestion instead of
    trying to read stdin in patch 8.
  - Squashed together the patches validating 'test_i18ngrep's
    parameters (patches 8 and 9), in the hope that this way I can
    better explain that the two checks are not redundant but
    complement each other.
  - Followed Simon's suggestion and dropped the now unnecessary curly
    brackets in patch 2.
  - Dropped a subshell in the last patch.  I initially used it to
    prevent the variable $f from leaking into the tests, since we
    can't use the 'local' keyword (yet), but other test helper
    function don't seem to care.
  - Fixed the placements of single quotes and '!' in error messages
    and redirected one more error message to stderr in the last patch.
  - Fixed a couple of typos in commit messages (the one Eric pointed
    out, but later noticed maybe 2-3 more).
