Refactor verity test for readability

1. Add getD/getDentry methods to avoid long casting line in each test
2. Factor all calls to vfs.OpenAt/UnlinkAt/RenameAt on lower filesystem
   to their own method (for both lower file and lower Merkle file) so
   the tests are more readable
3. Add descriptive test names for delete/remove tests
