test-lib: Add support for multiple test prerequisites

Change the test_have_prereq function in test-lib.sh to support a
comma-separated list of prerequisites. This is useful for tests that
need e.g. both POSIXPERM and SANITY.

The implementation was stolen from Junio C Hamano and Johannes Sixt,
the tests and documentation were not. See the "Tests in Cygwin" thread
in May 2009 for the originals:
