[test/show-glyphs-many] Re-enable test to trigger crash in xlib.

Moral of this story is bugs cluster. If we made a mistake, especially in a
complicated bit of code that is interfacing with another library, then we
are likely to make a similar mistake in future. Disabling this test hid a
regression between 1.4 and 1.6.

# show-glyphs-many - This stress test was exercising a particular bug
# in the xlib surface code (exceeding the X11 protocol request

# to stress some other aspects of the test suite. For example,
# when doing text as paths, the resuilting PostScript file is one
# giant path that ghostscript has a particularly hard time

# that performance problem in ghostscript. (But, there is a
# similar performance problem when using cairo to rasterize the

# a useful kind of test to bring back again for performance (not
# correctness) testing.
