[Swan-dev] replace "make check UPDATEONLY=1" with "make update"

[Antony Antony]

my 100% wish. 

make kvmprograms
make kvmprograms install
make kvmmodules
make kvmmodules install

make kvmrpm=libreswan-3.12.rpm install
make check

I am also wondering if it is worth to able to pass options to swantest
make check [options] and the options are passed to "swantest"

I am not a make wizard so not sure all of this is possible.
