Add a new make target to install to install kernel selftests.
This new target will build and install selftests. kselftest
target now depends on kselftest_install and runs the generated
kselftest script to reduce duplicate work and for common look
and feel when running tests.

Approach:

make kselftest_target:
-- exports kselftest INSTALL_KSFT_PATH
   default $(INSTALL_MOD_PATH)/lib/kselftest/$(KERNELRELEASE)
-- exports path for ksefltest.sh
-- runs selftests make install target:

selftests make install target
-- creates kselftest.sh script in install install dir
-- runs install targets for all INSTALL_TARGETS
   (Note: ftrace and powerpc aren't included in INSTALL_TARGETS,
          to not add more content to patch v1 series. This work
          will happen soon. In this series these two targets are
          run after running the generated kselftest script, without
          any regression in the way these tests are run with
          "make kselftest" prior to this work.)
-- install target can be run only from top level source dir.

Individual test make install targets:
-- install test programs and/or scripts in install dir
-- append to the ksefltest.sh file to add commands to run test
-- install target can be run only from top level source dir.

Adds the following new ways to initiate selftests:
-- Installing and running kselftest from install directory
   by running  "make kselftest"
-- Running kselftest script from install directory

Maintains the following ways to run tests:
-- make -C tools/testing/selftests run_tests
-- make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=target run_tests
   Ability specify targets: e.g TARGETS=net
-- make run_tests from tools/testing/selftests
-- make run_tests from individual test directories:
   e.g: make run_tests in tools/testing/selftests/breakpoints

Can this be moved to tools/testing/selftests/Makefile? It's only used in
this part of the tree.
I looked into doing that. KERNELRELEASE will have to be exported for
tools/testing/selftests/Makefile to use it? Does that sound okay?

Please use $(Q) insteaf od hardcoding the @.
I can do that.

The install target is only added by the next patch, which in turn
depends on changes done by later patches. The order (in the current
numbering) should be 01/19, 04/19, ... 19/19, 03/19 and 02/19.
Right. I can re-order the patches in my next version and make other
changes you recommended.

Also, it might be easier to get this series in, if you can Ack the main
Makefile patch (when we are ready i.e), so I can take it through
kselftest tree.

thanks,
