[for-next][PATCH 2/5] ktest.pl: Allow command option -D to override temp variables

[Steven Rostedt <rostedt@kernel.org>]

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Currently -D only updates the persistent options that are defined with
"=". Allow it to also override all temp variables that are defined with
":=".

 ktest.pl -D 'USE_TEMP_DIR:=1' -D 'TEST_TYPE[2]=build' config
