Interesting bug: because of how union-of-dependencies and
maybe-add-tree work (ASDF1-isms), you need to specify inferior-shell
*after* inferior-shell/test so it will be loaded *before* as a
dependency and will find the other system.

I'm glad this stuff is gone from ASDF3.

In any case, I pushed to inferior-shell changes that will make the
tests work with ASDF2 (the loading should already have worked before).
I tested with clisp and asdf 2.26 while temporarily renaming away my
asdf.asd.
