go asking what debug flags to set for GEOM to make it work. Advice
them to use gpart(8) instead.
Something similar should probably done with disklabel,

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.

As a side effect...
1. The tests now checks for the root user before continuing with kyua, which is
more visible than the test being skipped with the TAP protocol
2. The tests work with devices that aren't /dev/md0 by caching the device
