bug#65286: 30.0.50; package-install-file for built-in package

[Ihor Radchenko <yantar92@posteo.net>]

Hi,

I am trying to figure out ways to deal with mixing Org versions.
(https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=62762)

In my tests, I was trying to utilize M-x package-install-file to emulate
ELPA installation. And I think that I stumbled upon a bug in this
command.

Recipe:
1. Remove default elpa directory
2. cd /tmp; git clone --depth 1 --branch feature/provide-version https://git.sr.ht/~yantar92/org-mode
3. cd org-mode/lisp
4. emacs -Q
5. M-x org-version
6. M-x package-install-file <RET> /tmp/org-mode/lisp <RET>
7. Observe

ob-gnuplot.el:45:2: Error: Recursive load: "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org-element.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org-element.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org-element.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org-element.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/org-element.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/ox.el", "/home/yantar92/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.7pre/ox-ascii.el"

The same does not happen if we skip step (4).

Also, keeping elpa directory around between the tests triggers various failures.
