fa84f9decd224ea1c25dc7095bad70a48fa1a534 test: Pin and document TEST_DIR_PATH_ELEMENT (MarcoFalke)
2222f7a87404078984c7189768a3422deb114302 test: Rename SeedRand::SEED to FIXED_SEED for clarity (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Two small test changes:
* A refactor to update the name and documentation around `SeedRand::FIXED_SEED`.
* A change to extract and document `TEST_DIR_PATH_ELEMENT`, and to change its value to better match the `TMPDIR_PREFIX` in functional tests. The value previously included `PACKAGE_NAME`, which is cute, but doesn't explain why it was used (to include a space). So just use `test_common bitcoin` to achieve the same with less effort.

Test library
This contains files for the test library, which is used by the test binaries (unit tests, benchmarks, fuzzers, gui tests).
Generally, the files in this folder should be well-separated modules. New code should be added to existing modules or (when in doubt) a new module should be created.
The utilities in here are compiled into a library, which does not hold any state. However, the main file setup_common
defines the common test setup for all test binaries. The test binaries will handle the global state when they
instantiate the BasicTestingSetup (or one of its derived classes).
