Add function to test engine to test with pre-set osnoise options, and
use it to test whether osnoise period (as an example) is set correctly.
The test works by pre-setting a high period of 10 minutes and stop on
threshold. Thus, it is easy to check whether rtla is properly resetting
the period to default: if it is, the test will complete on time, since
the first sample will overflow the threshold. If not, it will time out.

Remove any dangling tracing instances from previous improperly exited
runs of rtla, and reset osnoise options to default before running a test
case.
This ensures that the test results are deterministic. Specific test
cases checked that rtla behaves correctly even when the tracer state is
not clean will be added later.

Using the RTLA_NO_BPF environmental variable, execute rtla-timerlat
tests both with and without BPF support to cover both paths.
If rtla is built without BPF or the osnoise:timerlat_sample trace event
is not available, test only the non-BPF path.

Implement a simple TAP-based test engine in bash and a few basic tests
using it, to be used to check for bugs and regressions.
A new "check" target is added to the rtla Makefile that runs the test suite
using the "prove" command implemented by Test::Harness.
The only test format currently supported is running rtla with defined
command arguments per test, checking its exit code. In case the exit
code is non-zero, the output of rtla is displayed, together with the
exit code.
The test cases are adopted from rtla tests in the Continuous Kernel
Integration (CKI) project [1] with the authors' approval.
