f19825af72 test: Remove -ntXY and -otXY primaries.
This reverts commit r247274.

As maintainer of sh, I disapprove of this feature addition.

It is too specific and can be done without easily using find(1) or stat(1).
I will add some hints to the test(1) man page shortly.

In general, FreeBSD sh is not the place to invent new shell language
features. This is how it has been maintained and adding features randomly
does not work with that.

The new syntax (e.g. [ FILE1 -ntca FILE2 ]) looks cryptic to me.

293beebc46 Enhance test(1) by adding provision to compare any combination of the
access, birth, change and modify times of two files, instead of only
being able to compare modify times.  The builtin test in sh(1) will
automagically acquire the same expansion.

f4f4b264b5 test: Add more testcases.
The new testcases pass even on old stable/7, but some other implementations
manage to get them wrong.

Also remove a few duplicate testcases.

eaea8924ce Accept == as an alias of = which is a popular GNU extension.
This is intentionally undocumented for now since it's not part
of any standard.

47fdf870a7 test: Move tests to tools/regression/bin/test.
Convert the tests to the perl prove format.
Remove obsolete TEST.README (results of an old TEST.sh for some old Unices)
and TEST.csh (old tests without correct values, far less complete than
TEST.sh).
