[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t] runner: Make the result an incomplete if a test is killed due to taint

[Petri Latvala]

If we're checking for taints, we kill the test as soon as we notice a
taint. Out of the box, such killing will get marked as such and yields
a 'timeout' result, which is misleading. The test didn't spend too
much time, it just did nasties.

Make sure taint-killing results in an 'incomplete' result
instead. It's still not completely truthful for the state of the
testing but closer than a 'timeout'. And stands out more in CI result
analysis.
