We need to allow users to easily override this value in local.conf.
This has the benefit that 'bitbake core-image-ptest-xxx:do_testimage'
fails when expected.

As an example, I used 'bitbake core-image-ptest-util-linux:do_testimage'.
It succeeded with warning message. I didn't notice the warning message.
I saw the command succeeded and I tought util-linux ptest is OK. But
in actual fact, the ptest failed. It's the PTEST_EXPECT_FAILURE setting
in this core-image-ptest.bb that is not giving me error.

With this change, I can put PTEST_EXPECT_FAILURE = "1" in my local.conf,
and I can easily see if 'core-image-ptest-xxx:do_testimage' succeeds or
not.

The PTEST_EXPECT_FAILURE change should result in testdata regenerated
because ptest.py test case's behavior is affected by it.
