v2:
  - Added macro in place of testcase/testsuite loops.
  - Added more detail in the summary output.
  - Moved testcase counts to the testsuite structure.
  - Flattened testsuite structure to remove union.
  - Added patch for fix of blockcipher test return value.
  - Squashed release note into last patch.

The current crypto unit test framework is not granular enough to
accurately track unit test results. This is caused by one testcase
in a suite actually running multiple testcases, but only returning
one result.
 
The approach taken in this patchset allows a test suite have either a
list of sub-testsuites, or a list of testcases as previously used.
The unit test suite runner can then recursively iterate and run the
sub-testsuites, until it reaches a suite with testcases,
and it then runs each testcase as it had done previously.
 
By allowing this further breakdown into sub-testsuites,
a refactor of the crypto unit tests solves the issue of inaccurate
reporting, as sub-testsuites can be used in place of the testcases
that had multiple testcases hidden on a sub level.
The blockcipher tests previously had these hidden testcases,
but are now sub-testsuites that are dynamically created and added to a
parent test suite, allowing for each testcase status to be reported
directly to the runner.
The cryptodev test suite is broken down into smaller suites that are
used as sub-testsuites, which allows for more flexibility choosing which
sub-testsuites should run for the current device autotest.
The introduction of sub-testsuites also allows for more precise
setup/teardown functions, rather than general ones loaded with
conditions as was seen with the initial setup function used for all
crypto testsuites.
 
For example, when running the cryptodev_aesni_mb_autotest, 
the AESNI MB parent test suite has its own setup function to initialise
the AESNI MB device.
Various sub-testsuites are added to the parent test suite, such as some
of the static suites that were once in the cryptodev_testsuite,
and blockcipher suites.
The unit test runner can then run the AESNI MB parent test suite,
which in turn will run the sub-testsuites.
 
Documentation will be added in a later version of the patchset,
adding to the test document that isn't yet merged. [1]
