runtests: introduce --shallow to reduce huge torture tests
When set, shallow mode limits runtests -t to make no more than NUM fails per test case. If more are found, it will randomly discard entries until the number is right. The random seed can also be set. This is particularly useful when running MANY tests as then most torture failures will already fail the same functions over and over and make the total operation painfully tedious. Closes #4699
