ebuild-writing/.../src_test: Do not suggest blanking src_test()
The only reasonable reason to blank src_test() out would be if the check
or test target represented something completely different from tests.
If the tests are broken, the only proper way to disable them is using
RESTRICT=test, as it clearly indicates that they were explicitly
disabled.
