ktest: Allow overriding bisect test results
When running the ktest git bisect test, if the BISECT_TYPE is "test", the bisect is determined to be good or bad based off of the error code of the test that is run. Currently, if the test returns 0, it is considered a pass (good), a non-zero is considered a fail (bad). But it has been requested to add more options, and also change the meanings of the error codes of the test. For example, one may want the test to detect if the commit is not good or bad, (maybe the bisect came to a point where the code in question does not exist). The test could report an error code that should tell ktest to skip the commit. Also, a test could detect that something is horribly wrong and the biscet should just be aborted. The new options: BISECT_RET_GOOD BISECT_RET_BAD BISECT_RET_SKIP BISECT_RET_ABORT BISECT_RET_DEFAULT have been added. The first 4 take an integer value that will represent if the test should be considered a pass, fail, neither good nor bad, or abort respectively. The BISECT_RET_DEFAULT will bo whatever is not defined by the above codes. If only BISECT_RET_DEFAULT is defined, then all tests will do the default.
