[QA] Test_page env variable and url visited

[Chris McMahon]

I've put in place a REUSE_BROWSER option for some of the tests in
VisualEditor, that Nik put in place for the CirrusSearch tests, that I
guess was first mentioned by Alister Scott in his blog, they all look
pretty similar.  Take a look at line 126 or so of
https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/mediawiki%2Fextensions%2FVisualEditor/62800f99ec350c345bdff86af4d2ed353d79270f/modules%2Fve-mw%2Ftest%2Fbrowser%2Ffeatures%2Fsupport%2Fenv.rb
