Description
The testmarkdown task requires externally available components, which leads to a too high dependency on these. Remove it from the dependency list of the test task, and add it to alltests instead.

This affects the build infrastructure, hence labelled with noreg-build.
Comments
This also entails detaching testng download and installation from the externals task, and attaching it to test executions instead.
