Introduce and use specialized `//@ ignore-auxiliary` for test support files instead of using `//@ ignore-test`

### Summary

Add a semantically meaningful directive for ignoring test *auxiliary* files. This is for auxiliary files that *participate* in actual tests but should not be built by `compiletest` (i.e. these files are involved through `mod xxx;` or `include!()` or `#[path = "xxx"]`, etc.).

### Motivation

A specialized directive like `//@ ignore-auxiliary` makes it way easier to audit disabled tests via `//@ ignore-test`.
  - These support files cannot use the canonical `auxiliary/` dir because they participate in module resolution or are included, or their relative paths can be important for test intention otherwise.

### Remarks on remaining unconditionally disabled tests under `tests/`

After this PR, against commit 79a272c, only **14** remaining test files are disabled through `//@ ignore-test`:

2://@ ignore-test (see rust-lang#114196)
```
</details>

Of these, most are either **unimplemented**, or **spurious**, or **known-broken**. The outstanding one is `tests/ui/json/json-bom-plus-crlf-multifile-aux.rs` which I did not want to touch in *this* PR -- that aux file has load-bearing BOM and carriage returns and byte offset matters. I think those test files that require special encoding / BOM probably are better off as `run-make` tests. See rust-lang#139968 for that aux file.

### Review advice

- Best reviewed commit-by-commit.
- The directive name diverged from the most voted `//@ auxiliary` because I think that's easy to confuse with `//@ aux-{crate,dir}`.
