Introduce a new tag, 'Tested-with:', documented in the

I'm not sure it should be a tag that stays all the way through git commit.
How about making it a cover letter/first patch footer?
tested-with: <suite>
Yes, that would be better indeed. However, checkpatch.pl doesn't process cover
letters, and so we would have no automated way to advertise and nudge people
towards testing.

P.S. Git forges do that for you by nature of actually running the tests
themselves, automatically. *Ducks*
