Volunteers to migrate tests.


Wanted volunteers to help on migrate tests to the new support test driver.

The support test driver was introduced in c23de0aacbea to replace the test-skeleton mechanism. While some tests are already migrated (e.g. b598e134773f and fb82116f2445 4e450f771a4), there are a lot of them still untouched. The idea is migrate as many of them as possible, then remove the old framework once completed.

Below you can find an estimate of tests still using test-skeleton.c. Each volunteer could pick and choose one or more folders to work on. Or if you have a better idea on how to split the work, let us know.

I can start working on elf and wcsmbs tests.

ps: it's a good opportunity for newcomers (like me) and people seeking for his first patch to get used to contribution process and glibc's source code.
