[PATCH 02/17] test: add known broken tests for "ghost roots"

This documents the bug discussed at

     id:87efgmmysi.fsf at len.workgroup

The underlying issue is that the reply to a ghost (missing) message is
falsely classified as a root message in _resolve_thread_relationships.

There are two pairs of tests; in each case the the first test is
simpler / more robust, but also easier to fool.
