[PATCH 4/6] t9500-*.sh: Fix highlight test hang on Linux Mint

[Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsay1.demon.co.uk>]

Linux Mint has an implementation of the highlight command (unrelated
to the one from http://www.andre-simon.de) that works as a simple
filter. The script uses 'sed' to add terminal colour escape codes
around text matching a regular expression. When t9500-*.sh attempts
to run "highlight --version", the script simply hangs waiting for
input. (See https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/815005).

The tool required by gitweb can be installed from the 'highlight'
package. Unfortunately, given the default $PATH, this leads to the
tool having lower precedence than the script.

In order to avoid hanging the test, add '</dev/null' to the command
line of the highlight invocation. Also, since the 'highlight' tool
requred by gitweb produces '--version' output (and the script does
not), saving the command output allows a simple check for the wrong
'highlight'.
