More complex tests often have to spawn a background process,
like a server which will respond to requests or tcpdump.
Add support for creating such processes using the with keyword:
with bkg("my-daemon", ..):
# my-daemon is alive in this block
My initial thought was to add this support to cmd() directly
but it runs the command in the constructor, so by the time
we __enter__ it's too late to make sure we used "background=True".
Second useful helper transplanted from net_helper.sh is
wait_port_listen().
The test itself uses socat, which insists on v6 addresses
being wrapped in [], it's not the only command which requires
this format, so add the wrapped address to env. The hope
is to save test code from checking if address is v6.

Add drivers/net as a target for mixed-use tests.
The setup is expected to work similarly to the forwarding tests.
Since we only need one interface (unlike forwarding tests)
read the target device name from NETIF. If not present we'll
try to run the test against netdevsim.
