Apache NuttX RTOS: Bot that will Build and Test a Pull Request

Read the article...

• "Test Bot for Pull Requests ... Tested on Real Hardware (Apache NuttX RTOS / Oz64 SG2000 RISC-V SBC)"

• "QEMU Test Bot for Pull Requests: Beware of Semihosting Breakout (Apache NuttX RTOS)"

• "PR Test Bot for PinePhone (Apache NuttX RTOS)"

We might allow a PR Comment to trigger a Build + Test on QEMU. For example, this PR Comment...

@nuttxpr test rv-virt:knsh64

Will trigger our Test Bot to download the PR Code, and run Build + Test on QEMU RISC-V. Or on Real Hardware...

@nuttxpr test milkv_duos:nsh

Super helpful for Testing Pull Requests before Merging. But might have Security Implications 🤔
