It can be practial to get the number of tests that test_progs contain.
This could for example be used to create a shell for-loop construct that
runs the individual tests.
Like:
for N in $(seq 1 $(./test_progs -c)); do
./test_progs -n $N 2>&1 > result_test_${N}.log &
done ; wait
V2: Add the ability to return the count for the selected tests. This is
useful for getting a count e.g. after excluding some tests with option -b.
The current beakers test script like to report the max test count upfront.
