The GRO test can run on a real device or a veth.
The Toeplitz hash test can only run on a real device.
Move them from net/ to drivers/net/ and drivers/net/hw/ respectively.

There are two scripts which set up the environment for these tests
setup_loopback.sh and setup_veth.sh. Move those scripts to net/lib.
The paths to the setup files are a little ugly but they will be
deleted shortly.

toeplitz_client.sh is not a test in itself, but rather a helper
to send traffic, so add it to TEST_FILES rather than TEST_PROGS.

Add IPIP test-cases to the GRO selftest.

This selftest already contains IP ID test-cases. They are now
also tested for encapsulated packets.

This commit also fixes ipip packet generation in the test.

GRO tests are timing dependent and can easily flake. This is partially
mitigated in gro.sh by giving each subtest 3 chances to pass. However,
this still flakes on some machines. Reduce the flakiness by:

- Bumping retries to 6.
- Setting napi_defer_hard_irqs to 1 to reduce the chance that GRO is
  flushed prematurely. This also lets us reduce the gro_flush_timeout
  from 1ms to 100us.

Tested: Ran `gro.sh -t large` 1000 times. There were no failures with
this change. Ran inside strace to increase flakiness.

The gro self-tests sends the packets to be aggregated with
multiple write operations.

When running is slow environment, it's hard to guarantee that
the GRO engine will wait for the last packet in an intended
train.

The above causes almost deterministic failures in our CI for
the 'large' test-case.

Address the issue explicitly ignoring failures for such case
in slow environments (KSFT_MACHINE_SLOW==true).

The setup_loopback and setup_veth use their own way to create namespace.
So let's just re-define server_ns/client_ns to unique name.
At the same time update the namespace name in gro.sh and toeplitz.sh.
As I don't have env to run toeplitz.sh. Here is only the gro test result.

 # ./gro.sh
 running test ipv4 data
 Expected {200 }, Total 1 packets
 Received {200 }, Total 1 packets.
 ...
 Gro::large test passed.
 All Tests Succeeded!

<title>selftests/net: allow GRO coalesce test on veth</title>

This change extends the existing GRO coalesce test to
allow running on top of a veth pair, so that no H/W dep
is required to run them.

By default gro.sh will use the veth backend, and will try
to use exiting H/W in loopback mode if a specific device
name is provided with the '-i' command line option.

No functional change is intended for the loopback-based
tests, just move all the relevant initialization/cleanup
code into the related script.

Introduces a new initialization helper script for the
veth backend, and plugs the correct helper script according
to the provided command line.

Additionally, enable veth-based tests by default.

v1 -&gt; v2:
  - drop unused code in setup_veth_ns() - Willem

Implement a GRO testsuite that expects Linux kernel GRO behavior.
All tests pass with the kernel software GRO stack. Run against a device
with hardware GRO to verify that it matches the software stack.

gro.c generates packets and sends them out through a packet socket. The
receiver in gro.c (run separately) receives the packets on a packet
socket, filters them by destination ports using BPF and checks the
packet geometry to see whether GRO was applied.

gro.sh provides a wrapper to run the gro.c in NIC loopback mode.
It is not included in continuous testing because it modifies network
configuration around a physical NIC: gro.sh sets the NIC in loopback
mode, creates macvlan devices on the physical device in separate
namespaces, and sends traffic generated by gro.c between the two
namespaces to observe coalescing behavior.

GRO coalescing is time sensitive.
Some tests may prove flaky on some hardware.

Note that this test suite tests for software GRO unless hardware GRO is
enabled (ethtool -K $DEV rx-gro-hw on).

To test, run ./gro.sh.
The wrapper will output success or failed test names, and generate
log.txt and stderr.

Sample log.txt result:
...
pure data packet of same size: Test succeeded

large data packets followed by a smaller one: Test succeeded

small data packets followed by a larger one: Test succeeded
...

Sample stderr result:
...
carrier ready
running test ipv4 data
Expected {200 }, Total 1 packets
Received {200 }, Total 1 packets.
