KCIDB: Test schema enhancements

Hello everyone (potentially) involved with sending data to KCIDB,

We've been working hard at KernelCI to bring you a bunch of exciting changes,
to be presented at LPC in September, and in our news channels.

Meanwhile I'd like to propose two small, but potentially very useful changes
to the I/O schema for tests:

* Supporting non-binary outputs beyond PASS/FAIL -
  integers/floats/booleans/strings/etc. - useful for performance tests.

* Supporting recording `compatible` values from the top of the device tree
  inside the test environment, for machines which use them - useful for
  correlating test results by hardware.

Here's the corresponding schema PR:

    https://github.com/kernelci/kcidb-io/pull/85

I'll follow up with a separate message for each of the changes, going over the
details and the rationale.

Feel free to reply to this or the other messages and leave comments in the PR!
