Subject: [PATCH] add option to build tests.

Upstream won't build tests when cross-compiling. However; this means still
building the tests during a host build. Building the tests causes build
failures on older distributions such as CentOS 6 and Debian 7 because the
command `objcopy --add-symbol` is used when building the test
"test_resources2," which is not available with the older version of objcopy
provided by the distributions.

Instead, add the option 'tests' which when set to false, enforces not
building any tests, even when building the host variant.
