    Build system: Fix linking with libheap.la and depend on testing.h.
    
    collectd-tg tried to link with libheap.a (instead of ….la), which
    doesn't exist. testing.h was not mentioned by any target, leading to it
    being missing form the tarballs.

    Build system: Build tested units as libraries.
    
    This simplifies the build rules for the tests, aka. check programs.
    
    * test_foo.c have been renamed to foo_test.c.
    * foo_test.c now reside right next to foo.c and foo.h.
    * Build and refer to .la files, rather than depending on .c files from
      other directories.
    
    Fixes: #1042

    This fixes out-of-tree builds, like "make distcheck" does.
