Add tests for Output, Error and Realm instructions The change introduces a new test dependency github.com/rogpeppe/go-internal/testscripts, which allows to create tests bases on txtar files. This is very handy for this kind of tests, because: - you can easily creates a set of files that can be used for a command (here the `gno test` command) - you can assert stderr and stdout expectations in a very readable and maintainable way - you can compare files using the `cmp` command, which is very useful to assert of the `-update-golden-tests` behavior. These tests were added to help work on gnolang#1015, which will potentially alter the behavior of "*filetest.gno" instructions updates.

Description
When
gno test -update-golden-testis executed for "*_filetest.gno" files, it writes the stdout below the// Output:instructions, and the content of the store below the// Realm:instruction.For the
// Error:instruction on the other hand, surprisingly, this doesn't work the same way. The-update-golden-testhas no effect on the// Error:instruction. To fill it regarding the actual error, you have to write the// Error:instruction but without any following content. In that case, it will be filled with the actual error, with an additional messageAs @moul suggested, we need to add consistency over that, the better way is probably to replace the
// Error:behavior which looks like an exception, with a behavior governed by theupdate-golden-testflag.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
