pts-core: Create end-user variables for having software/hardware values
when saving the results and setting the test identifier
When being prompted for the test identifier in saving test results,
several user variables are supported. These include $VIDEO_RESOLUTION,
$VIDEO_CARD, $OPERATING_SYSTEM, $PROCESSOR, $MOTHERBOARD, and
$KERNEL_VERSION. If any of these variables are entered, the Phoronix
Test Suite will replace them with their respective values before saving
the results.
