of: unittest: add program to process EXPECT messages
If unittest detects a problem it will print a warning or error message to the console. Unittest also triggers warning and error messages from other kernel code as a result of intentionally bad unittest data. This has led to confusion as to whether the triggered messages are an expected result of a test or whether there is a real problem that is independent of unittest. EXPECT messages were added to unittest to report each triggered message that is expected, resulting in verbose console output. scripts/dtc/of_unittest is a new program that processes the EXPECT messages to determine whether the triggered messages occurred and also removes the excess verbosity of the EXPECT messages. More information is available from 'scripts/dtc/of_unittest_expect --help'.
