Ralf Wildenhues f108ed8925 Implement parallel Autotest test execution: testsuite --jobs. ... * lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_JOB_FIFO_FD): New macro. (AT_INIT): <at_jobs>: New variable. Accept -j, -jN, --jobs[=N], document them in --help output. Implement parallel driver loop using a FIFO, enabled with --jobs and if mkfifo works; otherwise, fall back to sequential loop. (AT_SETUP): Store, do not output summary progress line if parallel. * tests/autotest.at (parallel test execution, parallel truth) (parallel fallacy, parallel skip): New tests. * doc/autoconf.texi (testsuite Invocation): Document -j, --jobs, the mkfifo requirement, and that --errexit may cause concurrent jobs to finish. * NEWS: Update.
