Seems that some of the new console logic causes doprint to possibly
get evaluated. When printing a commit message that contains parenthesis,
it fails with a shell parsing error.

This gets fixed when we add quotes around the $item variable, and prevent
it from being evaluated by any shell commands.

Since both success and failure may shortcut and exit ktest, it is better
to print the status times there too. Once times are printed, the values
for the times are reset, so they will not print more than once.

Allow the user to send input to the console by putting the terminal in
cbreak mode (to allow reading stdin one character at a time) and copying
all stdin data to the console's pty.

The function start_monitor_and_boot is a misnomer. It use to, but
now it starts the monitor and installs. It does not boot. Rename it

Seeing the times for how long a build, install, reboot and the
test takes is helpful for analyzing the test process. Seeing
how different changes affect the timings.

Show the build, install, boot and test times when at the end of
the test, or between each interval for tests that do those
mulitple times (like bisect and patchcheck).

<title>ktest: Restore tty settings after closing console</title>

<content type='text'>
When ktest runs the console program as a child process, the parent and
child share the same tty for stdin and stderr.  This is problematic when
using a libvirt target.  The "virsh console" program makes a lot of
changes to the tty settings, making ktest's output hard to read
(carriage returns don't work).  After ktest exits, the terminal is
unusable (CRs broken, stdin isn't echoed).

I think the best way to fix this issue would be to create a
pseudoterminal (pty pair) so the child process would have a dedicated
tty, and then use pipes to connect the two ttys.  I'm not sure if that's
overkill, but it's far beyond my current Perl abilities.

This patch is a much easier way to (partially) fix this issue.  It saves
the tty settings before opening the console and restores them after
closing it.  There are still a few places where ktest prints mangled
output while the console is open, but the output is much more legible
overall, and the terminal works just fine after ktest exits.
