perf-lib.sh: forbid the use of GIT_TEST_INSTALLED
As noted in preceding commits setting GIT_TEST_INSTALLED has never
been supported or documented, and as noted in an earlier t/perf/README
change to the extent that it's been documented nobody's notices that
the example hasn't worked since 3c8f12c96c ("test-lib: reorder and
include GIT-BUILD-OPTIONS a lot earlier", 2012-06-24).
We could directly support GIT_TEST_INSTALLED for invocations without
the "run" script, such as:
GIT_TEST_INSTALLED=../../ ./p0000-perf-lib-sanity.sh
GIT_TEST_INSTALLED=/home/avar/g/git ./p0000-perf-lib-sanity.sh
But while not having this "error" will "work", it won't write the the
resulting "test-results/*" files to the right place, and thus a
subsequent call to aggregate.perl won't work as expected.
Let's just tell the user that they need to use the "run" script,
which'll correctly deal with this and set the right
PERF_RESULTS_PREFIX.
If someone's in desperate need of bypassing "run" for whatever reason
they can trivially do so by setting "PERF_SET_GIT_TEST_INSTALLED", but
not we won't have people who expect GIT_TEST_INSTALLED to just work
wondering why their aggregation doesn't work, even though they're
running the right "git".

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals.
Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net.
Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.
Many Git online resources are accessible from https://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools.
See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with man gittutorial or git help tutorial, and the documentation of each command with man git-<commandname> or git help <commandname>.
CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt (man gitcvs-migration or git help cvs-migration if git is installed).
The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just “subscribe git” in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at https://public-inbox.org/git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites.
Issues which are security relevant should be disclosed privately to the Git Security mailing list git-security@googlegroups.com.
The maintainer frequently sends the “What's cooking” reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
The name “git” was given by Linus Torvalds when he wrote the very first version. He described the tool as “the stupid content tracker” and the name as (depending on your mood):
