Why not, -e/--exec seems useful/general purpose enough to deserve a
shortform flag. Especially since much of our testing involves emulation.
The only risk of conflicts is with -e/--error-* in other scripts, but
the _whole point_ of test.py is to error on failure, so I don't think
this will be an issue.
Note that -E may be more useful for environment variables in the future.
I feel like -e/--exec was more common in other programs, but I've only
found sed -e and perl -e so far. Most programs stick to -c/--command
(bash, python) which would conflict with -c/--compile here.
