Richard Hughes 2d00cda464 Remove PLUGINBUILDDIR and use G_TEST_SRCDIR and G_TEST_BUILDDIR instead
This allows us to override the location we load data files from, which
allows us to do more kinds of installed tests in the future.

Also, move the global data/tests content into the place that it is used
as it was getting impossible to manage.

Platform Health Assessment Table

Introduction

The PHAT is an ACPI table where a platform can expose health related telemetry that may be useful for software running within the constraints of an OS.

These elements are typically going to encompass things that are likely otherwise not enumerable during the OS runtime phase of operations, such as version of pre-OS components.

The daemon includes some of the PHAT data in the report data sent to the LVFS so that we can debug failures with the help of the IHV. This allows us to find the root cause of the problem, and so we know what other OEMs may be affected.

See https://uefi.org/htmlspecs/ACPI_Spec_6_4_html/05_ACPI_Software_Programming_Model/ACPI_Software_Programming_Model.html#platform-health-assessment-table for more information.
