selftests: mptcp: check output: catch cmd errors

Using '${?}' inside the if-statement to check the returned value from
the command that was evaluated as part of the if-statement is not
correct: here, '${?}' will be linked to the previous instruction, not
the one that is expected here (${cmd}).

Instead, simply mark the error, except if an error is expected. If
that's the case, 1 can be passed as the 4th argument of this helper.
Three checks from pm_netlink.sh expect an error.

While at it, improve the error message when the command unexpectedly
fails or succeeds.

Note that we could expect a specific returned value, but the checks
currently expecting an error can be used with 'ip mptcp' or 'pm_nl_ctl',
and these two tools don't return the same error code.
