Olivier Fourdan f37d11cd96 xwayland/test: Don't catch errors in run-piglit.sh
The xwayland-piglit.sh script spawns weston, runs run-piglit.sh and
finally kills weston.

However, this whole script is running with “-e” meaning that any error
will cause the script to exit immediately.

As a result, if run-piglit.sh exits with a non-zero code such as 77 for
skipping the test, the script will exit prematurely leaving weston
running, and meson will simply wait until the timeout kicks in, and
fail eventually instead of skipping the test as it should.

Fix this by removing the option to exit immediately prior to spawn the
script run-piglit.sh.

                        X server test suite

This suite contains a set of tests to verify the behaviour of functions used
internally to the server.

= How it works =
Through some automake abuse, we link the test programs with the same static
libraries as the Xorg binary. The test suites can then call various functions
and verify their behaviour - without the need to start the server or connect
clients.

This testing only works for functions that do not rely on a particular state
of the X server. Unless the test suite replicates the expected state, which
may be difficult.

= How to run the tests =
Run "make check" in the test directory. This will compile the tests and execute
them in the order specified in the TESTS variable in test/Makefile.am.

Each set of tests related to a subsystem are available as a binary that can be
executed directly. For example, run "xkb" to perform some xkb-related tests.

== Adding a new test ==
When adding a new test, ensure that you add a short description of what the
test does and what the expected outcome is.
