test-lib: allow selecting tests by substring/glob with --run
Many of our test scripts have several "setup" tests. It's a lot easier to say ./t0050-filesystem.sh --run=setup,9 in order to run all the setup tests as well as test #9, than it is to track down what all the setup tests are and enter all their numbers in the list. Also, I often find myself wanting to run just one or a couple tests from the test file, but I don't know the numbering of any of the tests -- to get it I either have to first run the whole test file (or start counting by hand or figure out some other clever but non-obvious tricks). It's really convenient to be able to just look at the test description(s) and then run ./t6416-recursive-corner-cases.sh --run=symlink or ./t6402-merge-rename.sh --run='setup,unnecessary update' Add such an ability to test selection which relies on merely matching against the test description.
