test-init.sh: avoid a subshell

* tests/test-init.sh: Remove protective subshell.
Suggested by Bernhard Voelker.  While a subshell is normally
required to protect against older shells (Solaris, FreeBSD) that
warn about a missing program before performing redirection, the
shell-selection tests performed by init.sh probably exclude any
offending shell.
