binman: Run tests concurrently
At present the tests run one after the other using a single CPU. This is
not very efficient. Bring in the concurrencytest module and run the tests
concurrently, using one process for each CPU by default. A -P option
allows this to be overridden, which is necessary for code-coverage to
function correctly.
This requires fixing a few tests which are currently not fully
independent.
At some point we might consider doing this across all pytests in U-Boot.
There is a pytest version that supports specifying the number of processes
to use, but it did not work for me.
