[lldb-dev] BasicResultsFormatter - new test results summary

HI Todd,

You changed the way the test failure list is printed in a way that now we
only print the name of the test function failing with the name of the test
file in parenthesis. Can we add back the name of the test class to this
list?

There are 2 reason I am asking for it:
* To run only a specific test we have to specify the "-f" option to
dotest.py and it takes the fully qualified function name as an argument.
Before your change it was displayed in the test output (in a bit
uncomfortable way) but after your change we have to open the test file and
copy the class name from there to run only a single test suit.
* With the new output format the output of the buildbot only displays the
list of the failing test function names what isn't too specific in a lot of
case (e.g. we have several test method called test_dwarf). This point is
less important as the file name can be added to the output from the
buildbot perspective.

Thanks,
Tamas
