This adds a script and configuration to use the Avocado Testing
Framework to run, at this time, the static checkers.
The actual tests are defined using (JSON based) files, that are known
to Avocado as "recipes". The JSON files are parsed and "resolved"
into tests by Avocado's "runnables-recipe" resolver. The syntax
allows for any kind of test supported by Avocado to be defined there,
including a mix of different test types.
By the nature of Avocado's default configuration, those will run in
parallel in the host system. For more complex tests or different use
cases, Avocado could help in future versions by running those in
different environments such as containers.
The entry point ("test/run_avocado") is intended to be an optional
tool at this point, coexisting with the current implementation to run
tests. It uses Avocado's Job API to create a job with, at this point,
the static checkers suite.
The installation of Avocado itself is left to users, given that the
details on how to install it (virtual environments and specific
tooling) can be a very different and long discussion.
