Tests: speed up render tests by running multiple in the same process

Blender startup time and shader compilation is a big factor when running
hundreds of tests, so now all renders in the same ctest run in the same
process. If a test crashes, the remaining tests in the same category will
be marked as skipped.

Benchmarked on a quad core with ctest -j8.
