We should go through all the easyblocks to check what custom parameters they define, and ensure those also adhere to our naming policy (see https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/issues/4563)

Experience from trying to change testinstall to install_for_test in PythonPackage used by PythonBundle:

PythonBundle tries to set self.cfg['exts_default_options'][key] = self.cfg[key] with key = install_for_test
The decorator on __get_item__ changes the key to testinstall
This doesn't exist in PythonBundle (inheriting vars from PythonPackage)
--> Error "Use of unknown easyconfig parameter 'testinstall' when getting parameter value"
