* Added the ATF_REQUIRE_THROW_RE to atf-c++, which is the same as
ATF_REQUIRE_THROW but allows checking for the validity of the exception's
error message by means of a regular expression.
* Added the ATF_REQUIRE_MATCH to atf-c++, which allows checking for a
regular expression match in a string.
* Changed the default timeout for test cases from 5 minutes to 30 seconds.
30 seconds is long enough for virtually all tests to complete, and 5
minutes is a way too long pause in a test suite where a single test case
stalls.
* Deprecated the use.fs property. While this seemed like a good idea in
the first place to impose more control on what test cases can do, it
turns out to be bad. First, use.fs=false prevents bogus test cases
from dumping core so after-the-fact debugging is harder. Second,
supporting use.fs adds a lot of unnecessary complexity. atf-run will
now ignore any value provided to use.fs and will allow test cases to
freely access the file system if they wish to.
* Added the atf_tc_get_config_var_as_{bool,long}{,_wd} functions to the atf-c
library. The 'text' module became private in 0.11 but was being used
externally to simplify the parsing of configuration variables.
* Made atf-run recognize the 'unprivileged-user' configuration variable
and automatically drop root privileges when a test case sets
require.user=unprivileged. Note that this is, by no means, done for
security purposes; this is just for user convenience; tests should, in
general, not be blindly run as root in the first place.
