[PATCH libinput 1/2] test: disable coredumps during test suite runs

Running valgrind through mesontest produces coredumps for a lot of tests
(unclear why, the core dump merely shows a call to abort). But even without
mesontest, creating a core dump for each failed test is a bad idea - if one
fails, most likely many others fail and the coredumps quickly fill up the file
system.
