Really glad to finally have this feature.

A few minor comments below (mostly mypy issues, though one of them
seems to be a real bug). Otherwise, the main concern I have is that
there's no final total of the tests run/passed/failed. That may be
easier to implement post the parser rework patch, though, so I don't
think we should hold this up for it:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20210901190623.315736-1-rmoar@google.com/

Also, if we changed the TAP header stuff in patch 1, there'd need to
be a couple of minor changes here to support it.

Minor issues below aside, this is

mypy gives an error here:
tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py:103: error: Incompatible types in
assignment (expression has type "LineStream", variable has type
"Iterator[str]")
tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py:103: note: 'LineStream' is missing

Similarly, mypy is complaining that:
tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py:105: error: "Iterator[str]" has no attribute "pop"
tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py:106: error: "Iterator[str]" has no attribute "pop"

Also, we could get rid of one of these output.pop() lines if we
removed the test plan in Patch 1.

This doesn't seem to work. My test run, for example, gave:
Elapsed time: 71.706s total, 0.001s configuring, 3.241s building, 0.001s running

The 0.001s running time seems way too small here.

Digging into this, it might be related to this mypy warning:
tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py:150: error: Incompatible types in
assignment (expression has type "float", variable has type "int")

Should it be exec_time = 0.0 or similar?
