Add meson test --interactive

This is very similar to --gdb, except it doesn't spawn GDB, but
connects stdin/stdout/stderr directly to the test itself. This allows
interacting with integration tests that spawn a shell in a container
or virtual machine when the test fails.

In systemd we're migrating our integration tests to run using the
meson test runner. We want to allow interactive debugging of failed
tests directly in the virtual machine or container that is spawned
to run the test. To make this possible, we need meson test to connect
stdin/stdout/stderr of the test directly to the user's terminal, just
like is done with the --gdb option.
