Use (implicitly) parallel tests on new enough automake. The tests run
a bit quicker with this change. On my laptop, I measured 27 mins down
to 18 mins.
Change the ./run function so that ./run --test no longer spools the
test output to a file. That is not necessary when using parallel
tests, since the test harness does the same thing.
Note: This commit breaks the $RUN_OUTPUT_FILE functionality.
