All testsuite changes require approval.

I think it's a good idea to keep track of changes in the C++
demangler, and keep the libiberty testsuite up to date. I just don't
think that blindly updating it is ever correct. The whole point of a
testsuite is to ensure that the code is doing the right thing; every
change needs to be reviewed to make sure that the new results are more
correct than the old results; automatic changes to testsuites defeat
their whole purpose.
