Currently tests can be classified into three speed groups depending on
whether the meson suite name ends in '-slow' or '-thorough' or neither.
This gets turned into make targets that match the name of the meson
suite, with the speed suffix stripped. e.g.
* suite=block -> 'make check-block'
* suite=block-slow -> 'make check-block SPEED=slow'
* suite=block-thorough -> 'make check-block SPEED=thorough'
The set of tests under the "thorough" speed, however, can get rather
large and it would be useful to have a way to expose further make
targets for directly running a particular subset of tests.
This needs a way to run a target without requiring the SPEED variable,
while also not having them enabled by default as if they were 'quick'
tests.
This modifies mtest2make.py to support this idea by allowing for a new
suffix '-optional' on a suite. When this is present, a correspondingly
named make target will be created without the '-optional' suffix which
will never be run automatically.
This is intended to be combined with use of other suites. For example,
a single NBD test might be added to two suites, 'block-thorough' and
'block-nbd-optional'.
This would allow running it as part of all the block tests with
'make check-block SPEED=thorough', and as part of a standalone target
'make check-block-nbd'.
