Introspecting test suite passing/failing

[Faré]

> Instead of using ERROR for raising the condition, I am [going to use SIGNAL][1].  This will mean that as long as no handler for ASDF:TEST-SUITE-FAILURES is installed, the test suite can be invoked by a developer normally.  But when the automated test runner invokes the tests with an [appropiate handler installed][2], I’ll be able to make the test invocation “go red."

The manual ought to more strongly recommend using ERROR for raising
the condition. That's the one and only interface to warn casual users
that tests failed. Failing tests that fail to throw ERROR fail the
user in an even worse way.
