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!
