tests/run-tests.py: Change --target/--device options to --test-instance.
Previously to this commit, running the test suite on a bare-metal board
required specifying the target (really platform) and device, eg:
$ ./run-tests.py --target pyboard --device /dev/ttyACM1
That's quite a lot to type, and you also need to know what the target
platform is, when a lot of the time you either don't care or it doesn't
matter.
This commit makes it easier to run the tests by replacing both of these
options with a single `--test-instance` (`-t` for short) option. That
option specifies the executable/port/device to test. Then the target
platform is automatically detected.
The `--test-instance` can be passed:
- "unix" (the default) to use the unix version of MicroPython
- "webassembly" to test the webassembly port
- anything else is considered a port/device to pass to Pyboard
There are also some shortcuts to specify a port/device, following
`mpremote`:
- a<n> is short for /dev/ttyACM<n>
- u<n> is short for /dev/ttyUSB<n>
- c<n> is short for COM<n>
For example:
$ ./run-tests.py -t a1
Note that the default test instance is "unix" and so this commit does not
change the standard way to run tests on the unix port, by just doing
`./run-tests.py`.
As part of this change, the platform (and it's native architecture if it
supports importing native .mpy files) is show at the start of the test run.
