[Pixman] [PATCH 1/5] test: main loop from blitters-test added as a new function to utils.c

[Siarhei Siamashka]

From: Siarhei Siamashka <siarhei.siamashka at nokia.com>

This new generalized function can be reused in both blitters-test
and scaling-test. Final checksum calculation changed in order to make
it parallelizable (it is a sum of individual 32-bit values returned
by a callback function, which is now responsible for running test-specific
code). Return values may be crc32, some other hash or even just zero on
success and non-zero on error (in this case, the expected result of the
whole test run should be 0).

+ * A function, which can be used as a core part of the test programs,
+ * intended to detect various problems with the help of fuzzing input
+ * to pixman API (according to some templates, aka "smart" fuzzing).
+ * Some general information about such testing can be found here:
+ * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzz_testing
+ *
+ * It may help detecting:
+ *  - crashes on bad handling of valid or reasonably invalid input to
+ *    pixman API.
+ *  - deviations from the behavior of older pixman releases.
+ *  - deviations from the behavior of the same pixman release, but
+ *    configured in a different way (for example with SIMD optimizations
+ *    disabled), or running on a different OS or hardware.
+ *
+ * The test is performed by calling a callback function a huge number
+ * of times. The callback function is expected to run some snippet of
+ * pixman code with pseudorandom variations to the data feeded to
+ * pixman API. A result of running each callback function should be
+ * some deterministic value which depends on test number (test number
+ * can be used as a seed for PRNG). When 'verbose' argument is nonzero,
+ * callback function is expected to print to stdout some information
+ * about what it does.
+ *
+ * Return values from many small tests are accumulated together and
+ * used as final checksum, which can be compared to some expected
+ * value. Running the tests not individually, but in a batch helps
+ * to reduce process start overhead and also allows to parallelize
+ * testing and utilize multiple CPU cores.
+ *
+ * The resulting executable can be run without any arguments. In
+ * this case it runs a batch of tests starting from 1 and up to
+ * 'default_number_of_iterations'. The resulting checksum is
+ * compared with 'expected_checksum' and FAIL or PASS verdict
+ * depends on the result of this comparison.
+ *
+ * If the executable is run with 2 numbers provided as command line
+ * arguments, they specify the starting and ending numbers for a test
+ * batch.
+ *
+ * If the executable is run with only one number provided as a command
+ * line argument, then this number is used to call the callback function
+ * once, and also with verbose flag set.
