This refactors the main unit test for jrtfs  and means it can't use 
newer APIs or language features. I'm interested in Sundar's view on this 
but I think I would prefer to need to keep the test separate so that it 
can compile to -target 8. Also I assume it just needs to do a few sanity 
checks, like walk the file system. Once we have something simple in 
place then we can add tests to it if needed.
