rillig | tests/make: fix test for the variable modifier ':On'
The variable modifier ':On' sorts words numerically. If these words are not numeric at all, they get assigned the numeric value 0. Internally, ':On' uses qsort for sorting the words. Since qsort is not specified to use a stable sorting algorithm, the test data must only use words that either are written in the same way or that are numerically different.
The test varmod-order failed this requirement by trying to numerically sort a list of non-numeric words. This led to different results on BSD and Ubuntu, as could be expected.
To fix the tests, distinguish between words and numbers in the tests. While here, clean up the tests for all variants of the variable modifier ':O'.
Found by sjg on Ubuntu.

rillig | make(1): indent directives like .info, .if, .for consistently
Done by "pkglint -F *.mk", no manual corrections.

rillig | make(1): mark test for the :Ox variable modifier as probabilistic
It fails very seldom, but it can.

rillig | make(1): move tests for the :Ox modifier into separate file
The test has been extended by ensuring that the shuffled words are still the same. Comparing two shuffled lists is probabilistic, but comparing their sorted results is not, therefore that's completely sensible to do.
When writing this test, by coincidence I discovered how to generate the "Undefined variable" error message. Unfortunately, the error message is wrong since the variable NUMBERS is defined at that point. In summary, that error message is shown when it shouldn't, and when it should it is not shown. Still, I'm glad that I finally found it.

rillig | make(1): add dummies for fine-grained tests, one per single feature
The test names have been derived from the current manual page.
All these tests are dummies right now, and the code from the existing tests will be moved into the new tests step by step.
This is done to prevent modmisc, escape, varmod-edge and varmisc from growing without any bounds, and to reduce the side-effects of one test to the others.
