tests: Document ABI extension catchers
Our invalid-flags/params testcases are meant to catch abi extensions by just testing for the next available flag/param. Unfortunately we need that since without those we forgot to write testcases for these new flags way too often :( But it's not entirely clear why this is, so document this trick with comments. Also gem_wait wasn't this paranoid, so change the testcase to be so. Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com>
