test: Allow running tests multiple times
Some tests can have race conditions which are hard to detect on a single
one. Add a way to run tests more than once, to help with this.
Each individual test is run the requested number of times before moving
to the next test. If any runs failed, a message is shown.
This is most useful when running a single test, since running all tests
multiple times can take a while.

+Running tests multiple times
+----------------------------
+
+Some tests can have race conditions which are hard to detect on a single
+one. It is possible to run each individual test multiple times, before moving
+to the next test, with the '-r' flag.
+
+This is most useful when running a single test, since running all tests
+multiple times can take a while.
+
+For example::
+
+ => ut dm -r1000 dm_test_rtc_set_get
+ ...
+ Test: dm_test_rtc_set_get: rtc.c (flat tree)
+ Test: dm_test_rtc_set_get: rtc.c
+ test/dm/rtc.c:257, dm_test_rtc_reset(): old_base_time == base_time: Expected 0x62e7453c (1659323708), got 0x62e7453d (1659323709)
+ Test: dm_test_rtc_set_get: rtc.c (flat tree)
+ Test: dm_test_rtc_set_get: rtc.c
+ Test: dm_test_rtc_set_get: rtc.c (flat tree)
+ ...
+ Test dm_test_rtc_reset failed 3 times
