drm/i915/selftests: Apply a subtest filter

In bringup on simulated HW even rudimentary tests are slow, and so many
may fail that we want to be able to filter out the noise to focus on the
specific problem. Even just the tests groups provided for igt is not
specific enough, and we would like to isolate one particular subtest
(and probably subsubtests!). For simplicity, allow the user to provide a
command line parameter such as

	i915.st_filter=i915_timeline_mock_selftests/igt_sync

to restrict ourselves to only running on subtest. The exact name to use
is given during a normal run, highlighted as an error if it failed,
debug otherwise. The test group is optional, and then all subtests are
compared for an exact match with the filter (most subtests have unique
names). The filter can be negated, e.g. i915.st_filter=!igt_sync and
then all tests but those that match will be run. More than one match can
be supplied separated by a comma, e.g.

	i915.st_filter=igt_vma_create,igt_vma_pin1

to only run those specified, or

	i915.st_filter=!igt_vma_create,!igt_vma_pin1

to run all but those named. Mixing a blacklist and whitelist will only
execute those subtests matching the whitelist so long as they are
previously excluded in the blacklist.
