This adds make install support to selftests. The basic usage is:

$ cd tools/testing/selftests
$ make install

That installs into tools/testing/selftests/install, which can then be
copied where ever necessary.

The install destination is also configurable using eg:

$ INSTALL_PATH=/mnt/selftests make install

The implementation uses two targets in the child makefiles. The first
"install" is expected to install all files into $(INSTALL_PATH).

The second, "emit_tests", is expected to emit the test instructions (ie.
bash script) on stdout. Separating this from install means the child
makefiles need no knowledge of the location of the test script.

v3: Rebase onto 4.0-rc2.
    Rename all.sh to run_kselftest.sh.
    Add --no-print-directory to emit_tests invocation.
v4: Rebase onto 4.0-rc3, add TEST_FILES to efivars and vm tests, remove
    newlines from echoes.
I don't see my comments addressed. If you want me to take
this work, please address the following comments:

- Name install directory kselftest. It should work with the
  the use-case.

  make INSTALL_PATH=/tmp make install
  The install directory should be /tmp/kselftest

- Flatten the directory with all tests under /tmp/kselftest

I am wasting lot of time because you don't fully address my
comments and send patches that dont' work correctly. Please
make sure your patches don't generate work for me.

thanks,
