I got the following warning when writing other tests:

  + handle_test_result_pass 'bond 802.3ad' '(lacp_active off)'
  + local 'test_name=bond 802.3ad'
  + shift
  + local 'opt_str=(lacp_active off)'
  + shift
  + log_test_result 'bond 802.3ad' '(lacp_active off)' ' OK '
  + local 'test_name=bond 802.3ad'
  + shift
  + local 'opt_str=(lacp_active off)'
  + shift
  + local 'result= OK '
  + shift
  + local retmsg=
  + shift
  /net/tools/testing/selftests/net/forwarding/../lib.sh: line 315: shift: shift count out of range

This happens because an extra shift is executed even after all arguments
have been consumed. Remove the last shift in log_test_result() to avoid
this warning.

<title>selftests: net: move wait_local_port_listen to lib.sh</title>

<content type='text'>
The function wait_local_port_listen() is the only function defined in
net_helper.sh. Since some tests source both lib.sh and net_helper.sh,
we can simplify the setup by moving wait_local_port_listen() to lib.sh.

With this change, net_helper.sh becomes redundant and can be removed.

<title>selftests: net: disable rp_filter after namespace initialization</title>

<content type='text'>
Some distributions enable rp_filter globally by default. To ensure consistent
behavior across environments, we explicitly disable it in several test cases.

This patch moves the rp_filter disabling logic to immediately after the
network namespace is initialized. With this change, individual test cases
with creating namespace via setup_ns no longer need to disable rp_filter
again.

This helps avoid redundancy and ensures test consistency.

Verify that TCP connections use both routes when connecting multiple
times to a remote service over a two nexthop multipath route.

Use socat to create the connections. Use tc prio + tc filter to
count routes taken, counting SYN packets across the two egress
devices. Also verify that the saddr matches that of the device.

To avoid flaky tests when testing inherently randomized behavior,
set a low bar and pass if even a single SYN is observed on each
device.

This helper could be useful to more than just forwarding tests.
Move it upstairs and port over to log_test_skip().

Split the function into two parts: the bit that actually checks and
reports skip, which is in a new function check_command(). And a bit
that exits the test script if the check fails. This allows users
consistent checking behavior while giving an option to bail out from
a single test without bailing out of the whole script.

Alongside the helper ip_link_set_up(), one to set the link down will be
useful as well. Add a helper to determine the link state as well,
ip_link_is_up(), and use it to short-circuit any changes if the state is
already the desired one.

Furthermore, add a helper bridge_vlan_add().

Check that only one notification is produced for various FDB edit
operations.

Regarding the ip_link_add() and ip_link_master() helpers. This pattern of
action plus corresponding defer is bound to come up often, and a dedicated
vocabulary to capture it will be handy. tunnel_create() and vlan_create()
from forwarding/lib.sh are somewhat opaque and perhaps too kitchen-sinky,
so I tried to go in the opposite direction with these ones, and wrapped
only the bare minimum to schedule a corresponding cleanup.
