fix(linux): check for existing file before trying to install
Under some circumstances it's possible that the user manages to select a directory instead of a kmp file, or manually enters a non-existing file. Is used to throw an error that we caught on Sentry; the user was able to continue to use the app. This change now checks for a valid file before trying to install the kmp file.

chore(linux): use xz compression for source tarballs 🗜️
Using the xz compression instead of gzip greatly reduces the size of the tarball.
Follows: #15566
fix(linux): include missing artifacts in source tarball 🗜️
With this change it's possible to build Keyman from the source tarball by running `./build.sh` from the Keyman root directory.
When building Keyman as part of the Ubuntu/Debian packaging, we don't use the toplevel `build.sh` file but instead call the build scripts in the subdirectories. This omits building some components that are currently not needed for running Keyman for Linux. The `dist.sh` script only includes the necessary files in this case, distinguished by the `origdist` parameter. This results in a significantly smaller tarball (2.5MB vs 51MB).
This change also enhances the `generate_tar_ignore_list` function so that it is now possible to add `build` to the exclude list to ignore all `build` subdirectories.
Fixes: #15544
This change adds the `assert-true` and `assert-false` function to our
bash testing framework, together with unit tests.
Also rename the test file to `testing-framework.inc.tests.sh` to match
the implementation file.
