The effect and motivation is for the test to be selected when doing 'go test cmd' and not when doing 'go test std' since it's primarily about testing the Go compiler and linker. Other than that, it's run by all.bash and 'go test std cmd' as before. For #56844. Fixes #60059.

The test directory contains tests of the Go tool chain and runtime. It includes black box tests, regression tests, and error output tests. They are run as part of all.bash.
To run just these tests, execute:
../bin/go test cmd/internal/testdir
To run just tests from specified files in this directory, execute:
../bin/go test cmd/internal/testdir -run='Test/(file1.go|file2.go|...)'
Standard library tests should be written as regular Go tests in the appropriate package.
The tool chain and runtime also have regular Go tests in their packages. The main reasons to add a new test to this directory are:
- it is most naturally expressed using the test runner; or
- it is also applicable to
gccgo
and other Go tool chains.
