Comment 15 for bug 1808733

Common users aren't adding files to the test suite, just sometimes running
it when they build from source. Since the HID doesn't care what the file
name is, we're not really placing any restrictions on users by forcing the
use of the attrs suffix.

I don't mind using the wildcard to let these files through, but I want the
warning message to be more accurate.

And I'd like the file name to somehow associate the file with the tests
it's used for. That's just good housekeeping.
