tests: fix daemon version in isDaemonNewer function

Since ad8a4b380e, the version printer returns "nix (Lix, like Nix) 2.x",
hence the `daemonVersion` was being set to the string "like".

Using `compareVersions` with a letter compares them lexicographically:

   builtins.compareVersions "like" "2.12pre20230103"  // => -1
   builtins.compareVersions "like" "2.16.0"           // => -1

This caused that `isDaemonNewer` always returned 1, falsy in Bash terms.
Therefore, the test suite skipped those tests where they use it.

Fixes https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/324
