Replace `test -f` and `test ! -f` with `test_path_is_file` and `test_path_is_missing` for better debuggability. While `test -f` ensures that the file exists and is a regular file, `test_path_is_file` provides clearer error messages on failure. On the other hand, `test ! -f`, used to check either the absence of a regular file or the presence of any other filesystem object, but looking at them in the test individually, all of them should've said `test ! e`, i.e. "there shouldn't be anything at given path on filesystem." Replaced these cases with `test_path_is_missing` for better debuggability.
'Replaced' -> 'Replace'. Cf. https://git-scm.com/docs/SubmittingPatches#imperative-mood Other than that, this LGTM. Thanks.
