t: skip chain lint when PERL_PATH is unset

Our chainlint script verifies that test files have proper '&&' chains. This script is written in Perl and executed for every test file before executing the test logic itself. In subsequent commits we're about to refactor our test suite so that Perl becomes an optional dependency, only. And while it is already possible to disable this linter, developers that don't have Perl available at all would always have to disable the linter manually, which is rather cumbersome. Disable the chain linter automatically in case PERL_PATH isn't set to make this a bit less annoying. Bail out with an error in case the developer has asked explicitly for the chain linter.
