so we can run TEST-46 under sanitizers once again. `systemd-homed` runs fsck on home directories, which reports a memory leak we're not interested in. Let's introduce an LSan suppression file to get around this. Since the patterns in the suppression file are matched using basic substring match[0], they're a bit cumbersome, but should get the work one.
