In order to make it easier for folks to discover available twister
options when using/searching the documentation, or when making external
search in their favorite search engine, inline the output of
`twister --help` into the docs so as to have an always up-to-date
and searchable snapshot of it.

bf95ad47be docs: Rename BLE to Bluetooth (LE) where applicable
The BLE acronym is not an official description of Bluetooth
LE, and the Bluetooth SIG only ever refers to it as Bluetooth
Low Energy or Bluetooth LE, so Zephyr should as well.

This commit does not change any board or vendor specific
documentation, and the term BLE may still be used in those.
It will be up to the vendors to update it if they want,
since many of them are using the term BLE in their
products.

b4d22420e9 twister: harness: recording: Allow multiple patterns
Extend Twister Harness 'recording' feature to allow multiple
regular expression patterns to extract different types of records
from test output.

Add 'merge' recording mode to collect all extracted data fields
into a single record object of the test instance.

Export to CSV file now takes all field names occurred in the collected
records, sort it alphabetically, and then use it for columns instead of
using only the first record's fields. This is done to address possible
situation when records have different set of fields.

Adjust Twister documentation and test suite to the above changes.

b69a8d1deb twister: ztest: short test case names on --no-detailed-test-id
Extend `--no-detailed-test-id` command line option: in addition to its
current behavior to exclude from a test Suite name its configuration path
prefix, also don't prefix each Ztest Case name with its Scenario name.

For example: 'kernel.common.timing' Scenario name, the same Suite name,
and 'sleep.usleep' test Case (where 'sleep' is its Ztest suite name
and 'usleep' is Ztest test name.

This way both TestSuite and TestCase names follow the same principle
having no parent object name prefix.

There is no information loss in Twister reports with this naming:
TestSuite is a container object for its TestCases, whereas TestSuite
has its configuration path as a property.

35e313f9e5 twister: recording: Allow JSON data fields
Extend Twister Harness recording feature to allow selected data fields,
extracted from the log by a regular expression, to be parsed into JSON
objects and eventually reported in `twister.json` as `recording` list
property of the test suite.

With this extension, log records can convey layered data structures
passed from a test image as summary results, traces, statistics, etc.

This extension also allows flexible recording structure: a test image
can output different types of data records incapsulated into a fixed
set of fields, so `recording.csv` file columns are respected, whereas
some of the columns keep strings with json-encoded semi-structured data.

This is especially useful for the pytest harness, where a fixture of a

hardware needed by the pytest suite (e.g. a network interface, a UART, or a
CAN interface connected to the device under test).

In that case, the logs are printed, and some tests (by yours truly) are
