Test for File.truncate to raise Errno::ENOENT if the file does not exist

Reported by vvs | November 23rd, 2007 @ 12:08 PM | in 1.0 preview

Additional test for File.truncate, to make sure that invocation of File.truncate on non-existing file is not going to create that file.

MRI behaves that way on both Unix and Win32 platforms, and it seems the most sensible thing to do.

Thanks for the spec. I've committed it along with a stub File.truncate for Rubinius in 4fa2fbb6b6c27ced5d6cf902e63e3989c2d29b64.
