The current rcutorture scripts unconditionally do "make clean", which is
a good way of getting the needed testing done despite any imperfections in
Makefile dependency tracking. However, this can be a bit irritating when
repeatedly running a single scenario after small changes, for example,
when debugging a problem that affects only a single scenario. This commit
therefore adds a --trust-make argument that suppresses the "make clean".
Even when using ccache, this speeds up kernel builds by up to almost an
order of magnitude on my laptop.

Both rcutorture and locktorture currently place temporary files in /tmp,
in keeping with decades-long tradition. However, sometimes it is useful
to specify an alternative temporary directory, for example, for space
or performance reasons. This commit therefore causes the torture-test
scripting to use the path specified in the TMPDIR environment variable,
or to fall back to traditional /tmp if this variable is not set.

This commit sets the executable bit on test scripts config2frag.sh
and kvm.sh. Since #!/bin/bash is set in all the scripts, this commit
also drops it from all usage lines because the scripts can now all be
invoked directly.

Some of the scripts encode a default /bin/sh shell. On systems which use
dash as default shell, these scripts fail as they are bash scripts. I
encountered this while testing the sprintf() changes on a Debian system
where dash is the default shell.
This commit changes all such uses to use bash explicitly.

All of the rcutorture scripts has the usual GPL header, which contains
a long-obsolete postal address for FSF. To avoid the need to track the
FSF office's movements, this commit substitutes the URL where GPL may
be found.

The output of the rcutorture scripts often requires interpretation, so
this commit simplifies this interpretation by tagging messages as
BUGs (colored red) or WARNINGs (colored yellow).

This commit adds the test framework that I used to test RCU under KVM.
This consists of a group of scripts and Kconfig fragments.
