The ptest-runner 2.0 is C written program for run ptests of
Yocto/Openembedded, is fully compatible with previous version of
ptest-runner that was a shell script that runs ptests sequencially.

The mainly reason for the new ptest-runner in C is because is designed
for run in tiny systems also the old shell script version have problems
when certain ptest hang it becomes blocked indefinitely.

Now the ptest-runner 2.0 support the next features:

	- Specify the directory for search ptests.
	- List available ptests.
	- Specify the timeout for avoid blocking indefinetly.
	- Only run certain ptests.

Proposed features:

	- Adds support for per ptest output file.
	- Adds support for run ptests in parallel (review possible
	  colisions in ptests).
