Testing some Author stuff would be rarer than having author tests. So
maybe we could standardize on something like "t/author" and when other
value is desirable, a key/value pair may be specified in META.yml (and
in Makefile.PL/Build.PL).

# META.yml
---

# the default location for author tests (not needed)
author_tests: t/author

# when something different is wanted
author_tests: t/developer
