Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Extract run_kselftest.sh and generate stand-alone test list

v2:
- update documentation
- include SPDX line in extracted script
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20200925234527.1885234-1-keescook@chromium.org/


Hi!

I really like Hangbin Liu's intent[1] but I think we need to be a little
more clean about the implementation. This extracts run_kselftest.sh from
the Makefile so it can actually be changed without embeds, etc. Instead,
generate the test list into a text file. Everything gets much simpler.
:)

And in patch 2, I add back Hangbin Liu's new options (with some extra
added) with knowledge of "collections" (i.e. Makefile TARGETS) and
subtests. This should work really well with LAVA too, which needs to
manipulate the lists of tests being run.

Thoughts?
