app-text/lesspipe: make progress on running tests

* Tests still fail in 1.87 but let's run them in debug
  mode at least to get some more useful output on failures.
* Applies an upstream patch for the majority of issues
* Drops one particularly fragile/unreliable test
* Uses LC_ALL to fix remaining failures

The test suite now passes when lesspipe is
not installed, at least. Spent too much
time on this for now to debug further, but
this is an improvement.
