====================
selftests: drv-net: support testing with a remote system

Implement support for tests which require access to a remote system /
endpoint which can generate traffic.
This series concludes the "groundwork" for upstream driver tests.

I wanted to support the three models which came up in discussions:
 - SW testing with netdevsim
 - "local" testing with two ports on the same system in a loopback
 - "remote" testing via SSH
so there is a tiny bit of an abstraction which wraps up how "remote"
commands are executed. Otherwise hopefully there's nothing surprising.

I'm only adding a ping test. I had a bigger one written but I was
worried we'll get into discussing the details of the test itself
and how I chose to hack up netdevsim, instead of the test infra...
So that test will be a follow up :)
