The "expected failure" tests for decodetree result in the
error messages from decodetree ending up in logs and in
V=1 output:

/mnt/nvmedisk/linaro/qemu-from-laptop/qemu/build/x86/../../tests/decode/err_argset1.decode:5: error: duplicate argument "a"

 1/44 qemu:decodetree / err_argset1                OK              0.05s

This then produces false positives when scanning the
logfiles for strings like "error: ".

For the expected-failure tests, make decodetree print
"detected:" instead of "error:".
