Mike Fleetwood 38cb6f2770 Fix make distcheck build failing with missing *.Po files (#785308) 
Make distcheck is failing like:
    <snip>
    Make distcheck
    Making distclean in tests
    make[2]: Entering directory
    '/home/gedakc/workspace/gparted/gparted-0.29.0-beta1/_build/sub/tests'
    Makefile:658: ../src/.deps/BlockSpecial.Po: No such file or directory
    Makefile:659: ../src/.deps/PipeCapture.Po: No such file or directory
    make[2]: *** No rule to make target '../src/.deps/PipeCapture.Po'.  Stop.
    make[2]: Leaving directory
    '/home/gedakc/workspace/gparted/gparted-0.29.0-beta1/_build/sub/tests'
    Makefile:596: recipe for target 'distclean-recursive' failed
    make[1]: *** [distclean-recursive] Error 1
    make[1]: Leaving directory

    Makefile:805: recipe for target 'distcheck' failed
    make: *** [distcheck] Error 1

Make distcheck started failing like this with this commit:
    f31808989a
    Silence subdir-objects warning from automake 1.14 (#781978)

However, also need to be referring to source files from a sibling
directory like this from tests/Makefile.am:
    test_BlockSpecial_SOURCES = test_BlockSpecial.cc ../src/BlockSpecial.cc
                                                     ^^^^^^^
First introduced by this commit:
    c37be28148
    Add unit tests for BlockSpecial constructors and internal caching (#781978)

This failure, if not exactly common, has been seen a number of times
before.  Using this hint from a GNU Automake forum post:

    converting to subdir-objects
    http://gnu-automake.7480.n7.nabble.com/converting-to-subdir-objects-td21724.html

    "I had the same issue and wouldn't care unless Automake 1.15 started
    to warn about "source file in a subdirectory". In my case 'bar.o' is
    also built from 'foo/Makefile' so I decided to skip using 'bar.c' as
    SOURCE and instead link in 'foo/bar.o'.

    Cheers,

    "

Fix by avoiding referring to source files from a sibling directory when
building the unit test programs, instead refer to object files instead.

Note that the automake subdir-objects option is still required to
silence the warning because of the use of source files in subdirectories
by lib/gtest/Makefile.am.
