## Summary

### Purpose
<!--
Why do you specifically need this feature and how would it be useful for others
-->

The use of `exclude` for test states hides limitations with boards (e.g., 
memory sizes), and it also obscures compiler bugs or unsupported features. Both 
of these uses make it harder to understand the limitations or to verify the 
correctness of a BSP with excludes. It would be useful to convey the `exclude` 
tests somehow to users.

One possible solution is to make the `exclude` tests build a test template/stub 
that helps point out these limitations for users, for example, by printing the 
contents of the `exclude` description.

### Result
<!--
What is the end result of this feature and what will you or others be doing 
with it
-->

The `exclude` tests will appear somehow in the test results.
