      While we provide a low-level mechanism for skipping a test, by converting a stylized exception to a stylized `passed` result, we do not reflect that at the top level reporting.

      This makes it effectively impossible to track such test results through the `make test` in the JDK makefiles

      We should improve the reporting in `jtreg` so that higher levels of the test onion can track such results. With that in mind, any improvement in reporting must be done in a backwards compatible way, to avoid any humungous flag day between the various systems (makefiles etc) that read the `jtreg` results.
