Perl 6 Test Organization

I'm prepared to start checking in Perl 6 tests on behalf of the Perl 6
documentation folks.  These should be considered functional tests -- they are
exploring the behavior we expect from Perl 6.  Anything that's not yet
implemented will be marked as a TODO test, and we'll figure out a way to extract
the unimplemented features so people will have small tasks to accomplish.

Brent Dax had a nice suggestion for Perl 6 test organization.  I like it
tremendously.

I repost it here to solicit comments -- to make this work, I'll need to change
the Perl 6 test harness to find all of the tests.  I'll also need to create
several different subdirectories as appropriate.  Rearranging things after the
fact is a bit of a chore with CVS (if you want to keep revision history), so I
welcome feedback.

Brent's post follows.
