Don't add a new Buildbot step, please.  Scons is slow to start up, so each Scons
invocation on the bots adds to the slowness.  We usually only have different
steps where we need to pass difference options to Scons.

Please just add the new tests to small_tests, which is where the validator tests
are now.

Done.
