Update the following quick/auto tag based on their execution time

Two systems are used to determine their execution time.
One is backed by an SATA spinning rust, whose maximum R/W speed is
about 100MB/s, modern desktop performance. (VM1)

Another one is a VM inside a openstack pool, with stronger CPU and
memory performance along with high latency storage.
Maximum R/W speed is around 150MB/s, latency is much higher than normal
HDD though. (VM2)

The 'quick' standard is a little more restrict, only when both systems
pass the test within 30s(+/- 10%), while 'auto' is less restrict, any
system can pass within 5min(+/- 10%) will still stay in 'auto' group.

Other test cases don't fit both standards on both systems will not be
modified.

Execution time result: (Unit: seconds)
------------------------------------------------------
Test case No. | VM1        | VM2      | Modification |
------------------------------------------------------
007           | 4          | 2        | +quick       |
011           | 669        | 1748     | -auto        |
050           | 4          | 13       | +quick       |
100           | 57         | 151      | -quick       |
101           | 45         | 59       | -quick       |

Hmm, I'm a bit hesitated to take this. We usually try to make new tests
run quick enough to fit auto/quick group, or reduce the run time of
existing tests if they're taking too long time (e.g. 86c1b55 xfs/042:
reduce runtime of the test).

But we usually don't remove 'auto' group from a test just because of
test time, so we don't lose test coverage, especially when the test is
potent. (I think btrfs/011 is one of these potent tests, it finds
hang/crash/failure from time to time. BTW, btrfs/011 took 210s on my
test vm, which has 4vcpu and 8G memory.)

I think the "<30s <5m" rule is more like a guidance, not a hard rule.

But 007 and 050 clearly belong to 'quick' group.

Thanks,
Eryu

Right, 011 is really helpful, so I'm OK to keep the 'auto' tag.

I'll update the patch soon.

Thanks,
Qu
