The printf(1) command, like it's C cousin, takes a format string as its
first argument. If a shell variable is passed as the first argument, it
will be interpreted as a format string; this can lead to surprising
behavior and can cause the test suite to fail if we accidentally insert
a format string character into the variable.
Modify all the places in the individual tests that we use a plain quoted
variable as the format string by running the following Ruby one-liner:
ruby -i -pe '$_.gsub!(/printf "\$/, %q(printf "%s" "$))' t/t-*.sh
Avoid modifying the test helpers, as there are places (such as calc_oid)
where we want to pass text containing escapes (such as "\n") and have
those be properly interpreted by printf(1).
