Improve pjdfstest run instructions
In the Kyua era, it's no longer necessary to set PJDFSTEST_TEST_PATH. Just use TMPDIR instead. Reviewed by: ngie MFC after: 3 weeks Relnotes: yes Sponsored by: Spectra Logic Corp Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D9340

+The pjdfstest test suite is normally run by kyua. It requires kyua 0.11 or
+newer. This README describes how to use pjdfstest in the default configuration
+(kyua work directory), with a specific filesystem path, and with prove(1).

2. cd to the tests directory:
% cd /usr/tests/sys/pjdfstest
3. Run kyua:
- % env PJDFSTEST_TEST_PATH=/mnt kyua test
+ % env TMPDIR=/mnt kyua test
- WARNING: the above method violates the test program isolation algorithm
- described in kyua(1); as such, $PJDFSTEST_TEST_PATH must be cleaned up after
- executing the testcases.
+ Note that if HOME is undefined, this will result in kyua's logfile being
+ placed in TMPDIR, which may not be what you want. You can always use
+ --logfile to explicitly select the log location.
- It's highly recommended that $PJDFSTEST_TEST_PATH be pointed to a sandboxed
- filesystem, e.g. a small UFS-formatted memory disk or ZFS dataset with
- quotas enabled, so the filesystem can be easily destroyed after the test
- execution is complete, and the testcases are properly bounded both in terms
- of time and space.
+Method 3. Executing pjdfstest with prove

+ 1. Elevate privileges:
+ % su -
+ 2. cd to the temporary directory of your choice
+ % cd /mnt
+ 3. Invoke a specific test manually
+ % prove -rv /usr/tests/sys/pjdfstest/chmod/00
