[Distutils] setup.py test doesn't honor --find-links

Can we extend the test command (deriving from easy_install, I guess,
instead of Command), to take the same options it does?

I tried hacking at it a bit, but without much success so far:  I've
gotten it to accept the '--find-links' option, but not actually to *use* it:

$ cd ~/projects/eggz/src/zope.tales
$ ../../bin/python setup.py test \
  --find-links="http://download.zope.org/distribution"

I'm attaching the patch against the current SVN head,
