Add a new devtest make target to enable developer testing. This
new target does full build (make all) and then runs selftests.

The name "devtest" does not give any hints that we are actually
running the suite of selftest programs.

Is it so because the plan is to extend devtest to cover more than just selftest?
If not please fix it so it is logical for the user what happens - in other
words name is selftest or something like that.


Yes the intent is to cover more than just selftests in the future.
That is why the target is called devtest.
