1106080 - Better integrate cppunit manifest files into build system

Status: NEW

(Testing :: CPPUnitTest, defect)

Description

[Dan Minor [:dminor]]

Bug 1087567 added manifests in our normal format for cppunit tests which allows skipping files based upon platform. Historically, cppunit tests were disabled on a platform by simply not building them.

We should probably either build the cppunit tests for every platform and then skip them selectively in the manifests, or automatically generate the manifests based upon what is being built.

One complication is that we've started packaging non-cppunit tests in the cppunit test package to facillitate running them outside of make check. The jsapi-tests are now run this way.
