Building the tty selftests generates the tty_tiocsti_test binary, which appears as untracked file in git. As mentioned in the kselftest documentation, all the generated objects must be placed inside .gitignore. This prevents the generated objects from accidentally getting staged and keeps the working tree clean.
Add the tty_tiocsti_test binary to .gitignore to avoid accidentally staging the build artifact and maintain a clean working tree.
