44ac762b14 test/py: fix spawn.expect multiple match handling
Multiple patterns may be passed to spawn.expect(). The pattern which
matches at the earliest position should be designated as the match. This
aspect works correctly. When multiple patterns match at the same position,
priority should be given the the earliest entry in the list of patterns.
This aspect does not work correctly. This patch fixes it.

e8debf394f test/py: use " for docstrings
Python's coding style docs indicate to use " not ' for docstrings.

test/py has other violations of the coding style docs, since the docs
specify a stranger style than I would expect, but nobody has complained
about those yet:-)

d314e247e1 test/py: fix timeout to be absolute
Currently, Spawn.expect() imposes its timeout solely upon receipt of new
data, not on its overall operation. In theory, this could cause the
timeout not to fire if U-Boot continually generated output that did not
match the expected patterns.

Fix the code to additionally impose a timeout on overall operation, which
is the intended mode of operation.

d201506cca test/py: Implement pytest infrastructure
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.

See README.md for more details!
