I think it would be nice if ert had the ability to skip tests.
Eg, a :skip argument that works the same way as :expected-result.
This would be useful eg when a test relies on external executable that
might not be installed on the system running the tests. You can get the
same result by using :expected-result, but :skip might be nicer in such
cases.
