Per discussion on #4893, managing exclusion of tests when newer features are required is currently non-obvious. The goal of this PR is to make maintenance of such exceptions easy and surprise-free.
The existing method was a hard-wired exception for the file 'async.coffee'. When I added async_iterators for #4893 I was surprised because I didn't know about the
build:watch:harmonybuild target nor the hardwired exception in runTests. Now both the feature test and filename match are handled on the same lines near the top of Cakefile.I included two currently unused pattern/feature pairs to demonstrate the intent and value of this approach. Both will likely be used for #4877 and #4893.
I didn't write a test for this change since it's a change to the test system.
After posting this I'm going to figure out how to remove the extra unrelated empty commits, but I wanted to get this out there before the weekend to follow through on my previous commitment.
