What is the longer term direction we envision?  Do we aim to retire
the UNIT_TEST_* and end up with only the clar based tests?

At least until that happens, can we have "UNIT_TESTS" -> "CLAR_TEST"
or something that makes it less confusing?  Every time I see merge
conflicts around this area in the Makefile, I get puzzled and wonder
which one is which.

Thanks.
