Test-specific dependencies? #247

Is CompatHelper supposed to also work for dependencies that are not required by a package, but are required to test the package, a.k.a. test-specific dependencies? DSP.jl recently ran into a situation where its test-specific dependency compat range was not being expanded by CompatHelper, which eventually caused test errors. I am not sure if this was due to misconfiguration on our part, or if this is an issue with CompatHelper. The test-specific dependency was specified using the method of specifying test dependencies that works for Julia 1.0 and 1.1, so that we can support the LTS version of Julia.

Currently, CompatHelper only looks at the [deps] section for dependencies.

I'd be happy to accept a PR that adds support for test-only dependencies!
