To be more closely aligned with Python community best practices, we need
to better document our usage of pip and make use of a requirements.txt
file that shows the versions of the tools that we are using. This will
aide in ensuring reproducibility of our tests as well.

We already can let a Python test depend on a build option being set via
@pytest.mark.buildconfigspec(). It may be necessary to let a test depend on
a build option *not* being set. So let's introduce
@pytest.mark.notbuildconfigspec
for this purpose.

At present the tests run one after the other using a single CPU. This is
not very efficient. Bring in the concurrencytest module and run the tests
concurrently, using one process for each CPU by default. A -P option
allows this to be overridden, which is necessary for code-coverage to
function correctly.
This requires fixing a few tests which are currently not fully
independent.
At some point we might consider doing this across all pytests in U-Boot.
There is a pytest version that supports specifying the number of processes
to use, but it did not work for me.

As opposed to PATH, HOSTNAME is not appended to PYTHONPATH
automatically. Lets add it to the examples to make it more
obvious to new users.

When implementing test/py hook scripts, it's helpful to read some working
examples. Provide a link to some. The link was mentioned in the commit
message which first added test/py, but not in any documentation file.

This tool aims to test U-Boot by executing U-Boot shell commands using the
console interface. A single top-level script exists to execute or attach
to the U-Boot console, run the entire script of tests against it, and
summarize the results. Advantages of this approach are:
- Testing is performed in the same way a user or script would interact
with U-Boot; there can be no disconnect.
- There is no need to write or embed test-related code into U-Boot itself.
It is asserted that writing test-related code in Python is simpler and
more flexible that writing it all in C.
- It is reasonably simple to interact with U-Boot in this way.
A few simple tests are provided as examples. Soon, we should convert as
many as possible of the other tests in test/* and test/cmd_ut.c too.
The hook scripts, relay control utilities, and udev rules I use for my
own HW setup are published at https://github.com/swarren/uboot-test-hooks.
