The testdata.json file generated as part of the rootfs postprocess

of developing OEQA test cases.
I’m about to run for dinner, but would it make more sense for this function to 
be a separate task inside testimage.bbclass that happens after rootfs?  This 
will stop the explosion of variable dependencies causing rootfs to re-run.
