This reports the reason why tests are skipped (for example, if a certain
binary was not built).

Peter Wu 0ce2cdda8b Tests: add minimal pytest support
pytest is a powerful test framework. The initial motivation is to have
much better detailed reporting when a test fails, see for example
https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/

Additionally, it has full parallelization support at the test level (via
the pytest-xdist plugin) instead of being limited to the suite level
(which currently has to be hard-coded via CMakeLists.txt).

Usage with the build dir in /tmp/wsbuild and src dir in /tmp/wireshark:

    export WS_BIN_PATH=/tmp/wsbuild/run
    pytest /tmp/wireshark/tests

For parallelization support and verbose printing:

    pip install pytest-xdist
    pytest -nauto -v /tmp/wireshark/tests

To limit yourself to a case based on a pattern:

    pytest -nauto -v /tmp/wireshark/tests -k test_unit_ctest_coverage

Tested on Arch Linux with Python 3.6.5, pytest-3.6.2, xdist-1.22.2.
pytest -n8 finished in 82 seconds while ctest -j8 required 87 seconds.
