> The test_progs runner defines a large set of convenient assert macros to
> perform all the tests. Writing a new runner involves rewriting some
> macros if we want some basic testing features like standardized failure
> log.
> 
> Export those assert macros from test_progs into a dedicated header so
> that we can use those in any test_runner. The sole requirement to be
> able to use those macros is to define a test__fail function in the
> runner that will be called whenever an assert fails.
