Only run modified tests with ninja

Seen on ninja development mailing list (thanks, Evan Martin)

For each test, add a build rule like:

build test1.stamp: test1.exe
  cmd = $in && touch $out

And then one to gather them:

build tests: phony test1.stamp

And now "ninja tests" will build and run all modified tests.
