[PATCH i-g-t v6 18/22] tests/core_hotunplug: More thorough i915 healthcheck and recovery

The test now assumes the i915 driver is able to identify potential
hardware or driver issues while rebinding to a device and indicate them
by marking the GPU wedged.  Should that assumption occur wrong, the
health check phase of the test would happily succeed while potentially
leaving the device in an unusable state.  That would not only give us
falsely positive test results but could also potentially affect
subsequently run applications.  Then, we should examine health of the
exercised device more thoroughly and try harder to recover it from
potentially detected stalls.

We could use a gem_test_engine() library function which submits and
asserts successful execution of a NOP batch on each physical engine.
Unfortunately, on failure this function jumps out of an IGT test
section it is called from, while we would like to continue with
recovery steps, possibly not adding another level of test section group
nesting.  Moreover, the function opens the device again and doesn't
close the extra file descriptor before the jump, while we care for
being able to close the exercised device completely before running
certain subtest operations.  Then, reimplement the function locally
with those issues fixed and use it as an i915 health check.  Call it
also on test startup so operations performed by the test are never
blamed for driver or hardware issues which may potentially exist and
be possible to detect on test start.

Should the i915 GPU be found unresponsive by the health check called
from a recovery section, try harder to recover it to a usable state
with a global GPU reset.

For still more effective detection of GPU hangs, use a hang detector
provided by IGT library.  However, replace the library signal handler
with our own implementation that doesn't jump out of the current IGT
test section on GPU hang so we are still able to perform the reset and
retry.

v2: Skip i915 health check if a GPU hang has been already detected by a
    previous health check run and not yet recovered with a GPU reset,
  - take care of stopping a hang detector instance possibly left
    running by a failed health check attempt.
v3: Re-run i915 health check as a first setp of i915 recovery (use full
    GPU reset as a last resort),
  - prefix i915 health check debug messages with step indicators,
  - fix spelling error in a comment.
v4: Unbind the driver from an unhealthy device before recovery,
  - drop caches on i915 health check completion.
v5: Refresh on a new patch added to the series which already unbinds
    the driver form a device found unhealthy.
