ktest: Add PATCHCHECK_CHERRY

Add a way to run a patchcheck test on the commits that are in one branch
but not in another. This uses git cherry to find a list of commits to
test each one with.

 #
 #  PATCHCHECK_END is the last patch to check (default HEAD)
 #
+#  PATCHCHECK_CHERRY if set to non zero, then git cherry will be
+#      performed against PATCHCHECK_START and PATCHCHECK_END. That is
+#
+#      git cherry ${PATCHCHECK_START} ${PATCHCHECK_END}
+#
+#      Then the changes found will be tested.
+#
+#      Note, PATCHCHECK_CHERRY requires PATCHCHECK_END to be defined.
+#      (default 0)
+#
 #  PATCHCHECK_TYPE is required and is the type of test to run:
 #      build, boot, test.
