Introduce bash scripting unittests (#724)

### Description of the change

This adds an environment for unit testing our bash scripts, using [BATS](https://github.com/bats-core/bats-core).
It implements first tests for `config_environment.sh`.

### Benefits

Writing unit tests for bash scripts documents the expected behavior and allows it being a quality gate in our CI.

### Possible drawbacks

Not everyone is familiar with this approach and unit testing framework. Me neither, it took me some hours to get into it.

### Applicable issues

- Related to #691 where an issue in `config_environment.sh` was detected. It doesn't fixes it yet. This will be a dedicated Pull Request.

### Additional information

I've verified that the changes for Renovate are indeed working.

You may wonder why there is only one `run $PROJECT_ROOT/scripts/init-containers/config/config_environment.sh` and many `run execute_test_script` calls.
Usually, testing a script itself would be executing `run $PROJECT_ROOT/scripts/init-containers/config/config_environment.sh`. You then can assert the exit code and other things. Since the `config_environment.sh` exports environment variables and we are not able to access them from outside a `run` execution, the function `execute_test_script` wraps our script execution between environment comparison. Doing so allows us capture environment variables that were added/removed during script execution.
