No idea, sorry.

We have testsrc and mptestsrc so... fftestsrc? or ffmire, miresrc,
colorfuzz, rainbowlicornsrc, ... or it could also just be a "ffmpeg" mode
option for testsrc so we could have all sort of mire templates (but that's
going to be inconsistent with the other smptebars & friends).

I don't know.

BTW, while I'm at it, I think a test source generating 10-12 bits video
stream would be great for testing purpose. This mire looks like a good
candidate.
