Most test cases can verify Git's behavior using input/output
expectations or changes to the .git directory. However, sometimes we
want to check that Git did or did not run a certain section of code.
This is particularly important for performance-only features that we
want to ensure have been enabled in certain cases.

Add a new 'test_region' function that checks if a trace2 region was
entered and left in a given trace2 event log.
Ooh, others do this too?  Sounds like a helpful function to add, but
just checking for entered and left means that...
There is one existing test (t0500-progress-display.sh) that performs
this check already, so use the helper function instead. More uses will
be added in a later change.

t6423-merge-rename-directories.sh also greps for region_enter lines, but
it verifies the number of such lines, which is not the same as an
existence check.
...yeah, won't cover the case that I added.  That's fine, since it
appears to be a one-off for now and we don't know of any other cases,
current or planned, that want to do something like that yet.

Sidenote: Hmm...about 40% of my region labels in merge-ort.c and 90%
in diffcore-rename.c have spaces in them.  This function could still
be used, but I'm curious if I should change the labels (but then
again, they are testing logical regions rather than individual
functions, and the spaces instead of underscores kind of convey
that...)
