bootconfig is a new feature that appends scripts onto the initrd, and the
kernel executes the scripts as an extended kernel command line.
Need to add tests to test that the happened. To test the bootconfig
properly, the initrd needs to be updated and the kernel rebooted. ktest is
the perfect solution to perform these tests.
Add a example bootconfig.conf in the tools/testing/ktest/examples/include
and example bootconfig scripts in tools/testing/ktest/examples/bootconfig
and also include verifier scripts that ktest will install on the target
and run to make sure that the bootconfig options in the scripts took place
after the target rebooted with the new initrd update.

Although the patchcheck test checks for warnings in the files that were
changed, this check does not catch warnings that were caused by header
file changes and the warnings appear in C files not touched by the
commit.
Add a new option called WARNINGS_FILE. If this option is set, then the
file it points to is read before bulid, and the file should contain a
list of known warnings. If a warning appears in the build, this file is
checked, and if the warning does not exist in this file, then it fails
the build showing the new warning.
If the WARNINGS_FILE points to a file that does not exist, this will
cause any warning in the build to fail.
A new test is also added called "make_warnings_file". This test will
create do a build and record any warnings it finds into the
WARNINGS_FILE. This test is something that can be run before other tests
to build a warnings file of "known warnings", ie, warnings that were
there before your changes.

I've been asked several times to provide more useful example configs for
ktest.pl, as the sample.conf is too complex (because it explains all
configs). This adds configs broken up by use case, and these configs are
based on actual configs that I use on a daily basis.
