[PATCH net-next v1 13/15] selftests: tc-testing: run dependsOn probes outside the test namespace

[Todd Freed]

a test's dependsOn probe runs as an execute stage command, but is run
before the test's namespace is created. nsPlugin prefixes the command
with "ip netns exec tcut", which causes the command to fail. this makes
every test with a probe that requires nsPlugin skipped currently. for
example the mirred blockid tests and the tunnel_key nofrag test.

probes are meant to check what tc and the kernel supports, not anything
in the test's namespace. run them as their own stage ("probe"), which
makes them run in the base namespace.
