However, reftable/stack_test.c currently is a moving target because
there is an in-flight topic that improves the table compaction and
that topic wants to add more tests there.  So let's wait until the
dust from the other topic settles before doing the first step of
this topic to move the file to t/unit-tests/ hiearchy.

Thanks.
