mtest: Allow filtering tests by subproject
You could always specify a list of tests to run by passing the names as
arguments to `meson test`. If there were multiple tests with that name (in the
same project or different subprojects), all of them would be run. Now you can:
1. Run all tests with the specified name from a specific subproject: `meson test subprojname:testname`
1. Run all tests defined in a specific subproject: `meson test subprojectname:`
Also forbid ':' in test names. We already forbid this elsewhere, so
should not be a big deal.
