tests: use "compare exp out", not "compare out exp"

2011-11-29T16:17:10+00:00

Likewise, when an empty file is expected, use "compare /dev/null out",
not "compare out /dev/null". I.e., specify the expected/desired contents
via the first file name.  Prompted by a suggestion from Bruno Haible
in http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.grep.bugs/4020/focus=29154

Run these commands:

  git grep -l -E 'compare [^ ]+ exp' \
    |xargs perl -pi -e 's/\b(compare) (\S+) (exp\S*)/$1 $3 $2/'
  git grep -l -E 'compare [^ ]+ /dev/null' \
    |xargs perl -pi -e 's,\b(compare) (\S+) (/dev/null),$1 $3 $2,'

But manually convert this one:

  -compare out exp-$(echo $opt|tr ' ' _)
  +compare exp-$(echo $opt|tr ' ' _) out

and avoid an inappropriate change to cfg.mk.
