We now support cascading expectations, so we should be able to implement this.

Note that we don't support more-specific expectations overriding less-specific expectations, and we don't necessarily support the same list of keywords across ports, so the only way this would work at the moment is if the top-level file only contained tests that had the same expectations across all ports regardless of configuration (or if they were all in the same configuration).

Possible examples:

1) tests that are slow but pass everywhere
2) tests that crash, timeout or should be skipped everywhere
3) tests that crash, timout or should be skipped only in debug mode (e.g., a check that fires everywhere)
4) tests that fail with the same TEXT failure everywhere (?)
