selftests/harness: Run TEARDOWN for ASSERT failures



The kselftest test harness has traditionally not run the registered
TEARDOWN handler when a test encountered an ASSERT. This creates
unexpected situations and tests need to be very careful about using
ASSERT, which seems a needless hurdle for test writers.

Because of the harness's design for optional failure handlers, the
original implementation of ASSERT used an abort() to immediately
stop execution, but that meant the context for running teardown was
lost. Instead, use setjmp/longjmp so that teardown can be done.

Failed SETUP routines continue to not be followed by TEARDOWN, though.
