[v2] generic/074: _cleanup potentially removes local FS files

fstest_dir is set after _cleanup() is defined and _require_test is
called. If _require_test fails (due to some unrelated bug in tested FS),
_cleanup will attempt to remove $fstest_dir.*, which expands to .*
This has the unfortunate effect of removing xfstests' .git and
.gitignore.

Here is the 074.out.bad file for this case:
QA output created by 074
mount: permission denied
common/rc: retrying test device mount with external set
mount: permission denied
common/rc: could not mount /dev/pmem0 on /mnt
rm: refusing to remove '.' or '..' directory: skipping '.'
rm: refusing to remove '.' or '..' directory: skipping '..'
----

The only other test which could face the same problem is generic/285.
However, that test defines _cleanup after the _require* calls, and so on
_require_test failure, 285.out.bad contains the harmless:
./common/rc: line 1: _cleanup: command not found
