  t/harness: avoid brace expansion for -dumptests

Brace expansion is not available in a POSIX shell, is handled
slightly differently by the shells that do support it, and is
unlikely to work when the underlying implementation for Perl's
glob() function is not a Unix shell.  So instead of doing:

    {foo,bar,baz}/*.t

just accumulate the results of simpler glob operations:

    foo/*.t
    bar/*.t
    baz/*.t

This also allows us to dispense with the recursive function
_extract_tests() and its fancy dispatch based on reference type;
we would only ever be calling it with a simple string argument,
so we might as well just call glob() directly.
