There were some useful nuggets in the "Tests in Cygwin" thread from May last year that I've dug out and improved. This series adds support for multiple test prerequisite, and improves the t/README documentation by adding a "Prerequisites" section.

There's also a small fix to the raw test output.

  test-lib: Add support for multiple test prerequisites
  test-lib: Print missing prerequisites in test output
  t/README: Document the predefined test prerequisites
