tests/variables.sh: tweaks for special and locale variable tests

src/cmd/ksh93/tests/variables.sh:
- Fork the subshell with the test that includes unsetting LINENO
  and changing its type. Otherwise, some side effect of that leaks
  out of the subshell, messing up $LINENO. This is a bug, but it's
  low priority -- we may get to it someday. Marked with a TODO.
- Do the LC_* tests in their own subshell. Skip them if changing
  LANG to an invalid value does not produce a diagnostic message.
  This occurs on OpenBSD and Alpine Linux (with musl libc). It
  looks like their C libraries do not verify the locale, so
  failures here are not a ksh problem; skip the tests in that case.
