tests: add stderr comparison to the test suite

The code is more or less copied from the stdout comparison code, maybe
some better reuse is possible.

test 1457 is adjusted to make the output actually match (by using --silent)
test 506 used <stderr> without actually needing it, so that <stderr> block is removed

Closes #3536
