test: create a list of extra tests

We removed some tests from the "CI" (fast-tests) list because they
were not reliable enough or did not make sense as non regression tests.
Since we still build those tests code, leave an option for users to call
them.
This list can also serve as a point where to document why test X is not
suitable for the "CI" list.
