    selftests: introduce gen_tar Makefile target · a5f30467
    Veronika Kabatova authored
    The gen_kselftest_tar.sh always packages *all* selftests and doesn't
    pass along any variables to `make install` to influence what should be
    built. This can result in an early error on the command line ("Unknown
    tarball format TARGETS=XXX"), or unexpected test failures as the
    tarball contains tests people wanted to skip on purpose.
    
    Since the makefile already contains all the logic, we can add a target
    for packaging. Keep the default .gz target the script uses, and actually
    extend the supported formats by using tar's autodetection.
    
    To not break current workflows, keep the gen_kselftest_tar.sh script as
    it is, with an added suggestion to use the makefile target instead.
