        <pre>The test rerun logic will charge timeouts and exceptional exits to the file if
and only if the dotest.py inferior was not in the middle of running a test
method when the timeout or exceptional exit occurred.

In these cases, it is impossible for a *successful* rerun to clear that
file-level event since the successful rerun will simply overwrite test-method
test results, not file-level results.

The simple solution here is to take the set of files that are scheduled for
rerun, and clear any file-level test result for them.  If the file-level event
that was charged previously is deterministically repeating, it will occur again
and we will not lose it.  In the meantime, we allow the rerun to clear the
file-level event so that successful reruns come back clean.</pre>
