Fix hang in comsubs (rhbz#1062296) (re: 970069a6)

The new command substitution mechanism imported in 970069a6 from
Red Hat patches introduced this bug: backtick-style command
substitutions hang when processing about 117KiB of data or more.

It is fixed by another Red Hat patch:
642af4d6/f/ksh-20140415-hokaido.patch

It saves the value of the shp->comsub flag so that it is set to 2
(usually meaning new-style $(comsubs)) in two specific cases even
when processing backtick comsubs. This stops the sh_subtmpfile()
function in subshell.c from creating a /tmp file. However, I think
that approach is quite ugly, so I'm taking a slightly different one
that has the same effect.

src/cmd/ksh93/include/defs.h,
src/cmd/ksh93/sh/subshell.c:
- Redefine sh_subtmpfile() to pass the comsub flag as an argument.
  (Remove the shp pointer argument, which is redundant; a pointer
  to the shell state can easily be obtained in the function.)

src/cmd/ksh93/sh/xec.c: sh_exec():
- Apply the Red Hat fix by passing flag 2 to sh_subtmpfile().

src/cmd/ksh93/tests/subshell.sh:
- Move regress test from ce68e1be from basic.sh to here; this is
  the place for command substitution tests as they are subshells.
- Add regress test for this bug.

All other changed files:
- Update sh_subtmpfile() calls to pass on the shp->comsub flag.
