interpreter, mtest: introduce add_test_setup(exclude_suites: ...)

This new keyword argument makes it possible to run specific
test setups only on a subset of the tests.  For example, to
mark some tests as slow and avoid running them by default:

    add_test_setup('quick', exclude_suites: ['slow'], is_default: true)
    add_test_setup('slow')

It will then be possible to run the slow tests with either
`meson test --setup slow` or `meson test --suite slow`.

 - `is_default` *(since 0.49.0)*: a bool to set whether this is the default test setup.
   If `true`, the setup will be used whenever `meson test` is run
   without the `--setup` option.
+- `exclude_suites` *(since 0.57.0)*: a list of test suites that should be
+  excluded when using this setup.  Suites specified in the `--suite` option
+  to `meson test` will always run, overriding `add_test_setup` if necessary.
 
 To use the test setup, run `meson test --setup=*name*` inside the
 build dir.
