After years of "if use test ; then ..." just working when
FEATURES="test" is declared, it isn't working with EAPI5. I think we
could save some bytes and headaches if we just add "test" to
IUSE_IMPLICIT.

Portage's emerge's "--newuse" option won't be affected by this. From
`man emerge`:
> NOTE: This option ignores the state of the "test" USE flag, since
> that flag has a special binding to FEATURES="test" (see make.conf(5)
> for more information about FEATURES settings).

What say you?
