'quick-test' attribute to list of smoketests…

   I've just rebased @rhtyd, a full smoketest would take day+ and this label 
gives you a real quick feedback if your changes brake anything fundamentally. 
   
   Actually in theory smoketests should be really quick and should give near 
instant result back. Their main outcome should be yes/no answer to 'is the 
build testable' question (as per common testing practice). I think this is 
where we got this wrong and kept on adding and adding more items to the suite, 
instead it should be the other way around, having a really short smoketest and 
more extensive regression testing suite.  
   
   With the current state, if you want to run all tests related to deploying a 
VM for example you'll have to dig out each individual file which contains these 
tests. With this extension you'll just need to add label "deploy-vm" to your 
test execution and it'll check all tests within all the files that have this 
label. It'll simply save you the hassle of going through each individual file 
and triage if you need to run it.
