Just follow suit of what we have been doing on Travis CI since the
very beginning: run tests with '--verbose-log' to begin with, and then
dump the logfiles of any failed tests, i.e. where the content of
'test-results/t1234-foo.exit' is not '0'.

Re-running a failed test is not a good idea, as it won't help if the
test managed to fail because of a rare flakiness.
