affinity tests

[Gedare Bloom]

pthread_attr can go in psxtests, cpu_set_t with 1 cpu can go in sptests.

SMP-aware versions should go in smptests, which should continue to be
conditional on --enable-smp switch.

There may need to be some psxsmptests in the future. They could
perhaps be integrated in the psxtests directory.
