[PATCH] tests: restrict shells to those that support 'local'

[Pádraig Brady]

The local keyword is very widely supported and used
in tests in coreutils and grep at least.  Therefore
restrict to testing with shells that support it.
This mainly excludes /bin/sh on Solaris.
Note standard ksh also doesn't support this keyword,
but that wasn't in the list of considered shells anyway.
For discussion on adding 'local' to POSIX, see:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/122267/focus=3271

* tests/init.sh (gl_shell_test_script_): Add a test for 'local'.
