[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] fate.sh: Allow overriding what targets to make for running the tests

[Martin Storsjö]

This can be useful if doing testing of uncommon CPU extensions by
running tests with QEMU (by configuring with e.g.
"target_exec=qemu-aarch64"), by only running the checkasm tests,
to get a reasonable test coverage without excessive test runtime.

For such a config, setting fate_targets="fate-checkasm fate-cpu"
can be a good tradeoff.
