Describe the bug

osal_loader_UT would fail while running on the target, since the utmod/* files aren't installed along w/ the test executable to build/exe/*

In addition, under certain circumstances, the following tests may fail, i.e. if another user has run the tests and files are left in /dev/shm (the tests don't clean up the files):
file-api-test
select-test

To Reproduce
For the first case, run test out of build/exe/[cpu]

For the second case, run file-api-test/select-test once, chown the files under /dev/shm/RAM[N] to some other user, and run again.

Expected behavior
Tests should succeed

Code snips

Should have an install line for the test modules here:

Should test if actual directory is writable, not just if the parent tmp directory is writable,

This alone wouldn't solve the issue though, just punt it to the next available tmp directory. You'd probably also want to use mkstemp() or similar to generate a randomly named directory under the tmp folder.
