t/check-non-portable-shell: detect "FOO= shell_func", too

jrn · gitster · commit a7fbf12f2f31 · 2020-01-15T14:02:32.000-08:00
Just like assigning a nonempty value, assigning an empty value to a
shell variable when calling a function produces non-portable behavior:
in some shells, the assignment lasts for the duration of the function
invocation, and in others, it persists after the function returns.
