MULTI-FILE TEST SUITE MACROS

I struggled trying to figure this out in a way that was
as simple as possible. I wanted to be able to define
the test suite in one object file, then refer it within
the other one within the minimum amount of typing.

Unfortunately without resorting to some supermacro
work, I could only find a happy comprimise.

See test_multi.c for an example.
