patch 9.1.0763: tests: cannot run single syntax tests

Problem:  tests: cannot run single syntax tests
Solution: Support running a subset of syntax tests
          (Aliaksei Budavei)

Two methods of assembling a subset of test filenames for
selection are provided:

* Filename and filetype Make targets will be generated, and
  multiple such targets can be passed before the mandated
  trailing "test" target, e.g. "make html markdown test".

* Filenames and their parts can be specified as a regular
  expression that is assigned to a "VIM_SYNTAX_TEST_FILTER"
  environment variable, and used with the test Make target,
  e.g. "VIM_SYNTAX_TEST_FILTER=html\\\|markdown make test".
  (This variable will be ignored and the whole suite will be
  run when Make is GNU Make and a parent Makefile is used.)

Methods can be used alone or together, with the Make targets
having the higher precedence. Neither method will influence
the order of test execution.

closes: #15670

If there is no further setup required, you can now run all tests:

Or you can run the tests for a filetype only by passing its file extension as
another target, e.g. "java", before "test":
make java test
Or you can run a test or two by passing their filenames as extra targets, e.g.
"java_string.java" and "java_numbers.java", before "test", after listing all
available syntax tests for Java:
ls testdir/input/java*
make java_string.java java_numbers.java test
(Some interactive shells may attempt to perform word completion on arbitrary
command arguments when you press certain keys, e.g. Tab or Ctrl-i.)
As an alternative, you can specify a subset of test filenames for running as
a regular expression and assign it to a VIM_SYNTAX_TEST_FILTER environment
variable; e.g. to run all tests whose base names contain "fold", use any of:
make test -e 'VIM_SYNTAX_TEST_FILTER = fold.*\..\+'
make test VIM_SYNTAX_TEST_FILTER='fold.*\..\+'
VIM_SYNTAX_TEST_FILTER='fold.*\..\+' make test
Consider quoting the variable value to avoid any interpretation by the shell.
Both Make targets and the variable may be used at the same time, the target
names will be tried for matching before the variable value.
The first time testing "input/java.java" will fail with an error for a missing
screendump. The newly created screendumps will be "failed/java_00.dump",
"failed/java_01.dump", etc. You can inspect each with:
call term_dumpload('failed/java_00.dump')
