Merge branch 'peppe/common_test/r14b03_tickets' into dev

* peppe/common_test/r14b03_tickets:
  Have test_server locate the source code file for a test suite module if it's not in the same directory as the beam file.
  Fix error in vts mode, making it impossible to execute suites with test case groups.
  Fix problem with merging ticket branch.
  Fix problems with timetrap handling in common_test: 1. ct:timetrap(infinity) not supported. 2. Previous set timetrap for a test case is not cancelled by new one.
  Document the new init_per_testcase return value.
  Make it possible to fail test case by returning {fail,Reason} from init_per_testcase.
  Fix problem with merging a ticket branch.
  Fix issues related to test case groups: 1. Allow empty group to be specified without generating an error. 2. Sort out potential problem with unnecessary call to delete_subs/2.
  Add test case for suite with empty group.
  Improve validation of test events.
  Fix failing tests on Windows.
  Make it possible to refresh the top level index page at the start of a test run.
  Fix problem with CT hook start error causing IO to be sent to wrong group leader process.
  Do minor updates of the ts test framework.
  Correct failing test cases.
