[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH luajit 1/2] test: disable buffering for the C test engine

[Igor Munkin]

Our testing engine for the tests implemented in C introduced in scope of
the commit a0483bd214f2bbc9d7e5fc95ebc0ae13e8d22bcc ("test: introduce
module for C tests") lazily flushes the TAP-formatted report to the
<stdout>. This might lead to a mess in a report e.g. in case when the
particular case forks a child (that inherits its <stdout>) prior to TAP
header is yield to <stdout>. Hence the patch disables buffering for
<stdout> before any part of the TAP-formatted report is printed.

Follows up tarantool/tarantool#7900
