init.sh: don't let bash aliases interfere with tests * tests/init.sh: Undefine any pre-defined aliases if the selected shell is bash. This avoids problems for those who alias standard commands to non-conforming uses, like those reported in http://bugs.gnu.org/11256. Suggested by Tim Mooney <Tim.Mooney@ndsu.edu>.
