Subject: [PATCH] fix(simulation): the test mode gives nothing to the outside
 and leaves the player's files alone

The test mode turned off what comes in from outside, but a few settings
of the user's eu07.ini still reached out of a test run:

- feedbackmode: 1 and 2 toggle Caps Lock / Scroll Lock by injecting key
  events into the whole system, 3 and 4 drive an LPT port or a PoKeys
  desk (and 4 reads the desk's switches);
- multiplayer: events are reported to a multiplayer server, and some
  events are held back for it;
- execonexit: a program is run with system() at the end of each run,
  which also waits for it;
- showsystemconsole: a console of the run's own pops up and stdout is
  reopened on it, so whoever started the test with a redirected output
  doesn't get the `test:` line (and a console the run was started from
  would be hidden without it);
- imgui.ini in the game folder was written by every run, and by several
  at once with run.py -j.

All of these are off in test mode. Nothing changes outside it.
