Good point! You're right: as it stands, there is no context within
KUnit indicating the source of the failure, and the tool itself is
responsible for logging. This patch is mainly focused on just failing
test cases from outside KUnit.

I'm actually working on sending a follow-up patch soon that supports
the expectation of failures from specific tools. It will introduce
something similar to what you are suggesting, so that KUnit can
properly distinguish between different failures and log them
appropriately. Thanks for the suggestion!
