selftests/net: Add trace events matching to tcp_ao

Setup trace points, add a new ftrace instance in order to not interfere
with the rest of the system, filtering by net namespace cookies.
Raise a new background thread that parses trace_pipe, matches them with
the list of expected events.

Wiring up trace events to selftests provides another insight if there is
anything unexpected happining in the tcp-ao code (i.e. key rotation when
it's not expected).

Note: in real programs libtraceevent should be used instead of this
manual labor of setting ftrace up and parsing. I'm not using it here
as I don't want to have an .so library dependency that one would have to
bring into VM or DUT (Device Under Test). Please, don't copy it over
into any real world programs, that aren't tests.

selftests/net: Provide test_snprintf() helper

Instead of pre-allocating a fixed-sized buffer of TEST_MSG_BUFFER_SIZE
and printing into it, call vsnprintf() with str = NULL, which will
return the needed size of the buffer. This hack is documented in
man 3 vsnprintf.

Essentially, in C++ terms, it re-invents std::stringstream, which is
going to be used to print different tracing paths and formatted strings.
Use it straight away in __test_print() - which is thread-safe version of
printing in selftests.

selftests/net: Add TCP-AO library

Provide functions to create selftests dedicated to TCP-AO.
They can run in parallel, as they use temporary net namespaces.
They can be very specific to the feature being tested.
This will allow to create a lot of TCP-AO tests, without complicating
one binary with many --options and to create scenarios, that are
hard to put in bash script that uses one binary.
