The mirroring tests are currently run in a skip_hw and optionally a skip_sw
mode. The former tests the SW datapath, the latter the HW datapath, if
available. In order to be able to test SW datapath on HW loopbacks, traps
are installed on ingress to get traffic from the HW datapath to the SW one.
This adds an unnecessary complexity when it would be much simpler to just
use a veth-based topology to test the SW datapath. Thus drop all the code
that supports this dual testing.

The mirroring selftests work by sending ICMP traffic between two hosts.
Along the way, this traffic is mirrored to a gretap netdevice, and counter
taps are then installed strategically along the path of the mirrored
traffic to verify the mirroring took place.
The problem with this is that besides mirroring the primary traffic, any
other service traffic is mirrored as well. At the same time, because the
tests need to work in HW-offloaded scenarios, the ability of the device to
do arbitrary packet inspection should not be taken for granted. Most tests
therefore simply use matchall, one uses flower to match on IP address.
As a result, the selftests are noisy, because besides the primary ICMP
traffic, any amount of other service traffic is mirrored as well.
mirror_test() accommodated this noisiness by giving the counters an
allowance of several packets. But in the previous patch, where possible,
counter taps were changed to match only on an exact ICMP message. At least
in those cases, we can demand an exact number of packets to match.
Where the tap is installed on a connective netdevice, the exact matching is
not practical (though with u32, anything is possible). In those places,
there should still be some leeway -- and probably bigger than before,
because experience shows that these tests are very noisy.
To that end, change mirror_test() so that it can be either called with an
exact number to expect, or with an expression. Where leeway is needed,
adjust callers to pass a ">= 10" instead of mere 10.

This test verifies whether the encapsulated packets have the correct
configured TTL. It does so by sending ICMP packets through the test
topology and mirroring them to a gretap netdevice. On a busy host
however, more than just the test ICMP packets may end up flowing
through the topology, get mirrored, and counted. This leads to
potential spurious failures as the test observes much more mirrored
packets than the sent test packets, and assumes a bug.
Fix this by tightening up the mirror action match. Change it from
matchall to a flower classifier matching on ICMP packets specifically.

In commit 6de6e46d27ef ("cls_flower: Fix inability to match GRE/IPIP
packets"), cls_flower was fixed to match an outer packet of a tunneled
packet as would be expected, rather than dissecting to the inner packet and
matching on that.
This fix uncovered several issues in packet matching in mirroring
selftests:
- in mirror_gre_bridge_1d_vlan.sh and mirror_gre_vlan_bridge_1q.sh, the
vlan_ethtype match is copied around as "ip", even as some of the tests
are running over ip6gretap. This is fixed by using an "ipv6" for
vlan_ethtype in the ip6gretap tests.
- in mirror_gre_changes.sh, a filter to count GRE packets is set up to
match TTL of 50. This used to trigger in the offloaded datapath, where
the envelope TTL was matched, but not in the software datapath, which
considered TTL of the inner packet. Now that both match consistently, all
the packets were double-counted. This is fixed by marking the filter as
skip_hw, leaving only the SW datapath component active.

When running in a simulator, the TTL change takes a while to settle and
during this time the performance of the packet processing is lowered.
The resulting instability leads to ping sending more packets as it
assumes some have been dropped. This then leads to regular spurious
failures as more packets than expected are observed.
Sleep a bit to give the system time to stabilize.

When running the test on soft devices, there's no mechanism to
gratuitously start resolving the neighbor for remote tunnel endpoint.
So instead of passively waiting, wait for the device to be up, and then
probe the neighbor with a ping.

Having a clsact qdisc on $h3 is useful in several tests, and will be
useful in more tests to come. Move the registration from all the tests
that need it into the topology file itself.

Similar to commit a511858c7536 ("selftests: fib_tests: Allow user to run
a specific test"), allow user to run only a subset of the tests using
the TESTS environment variable.
This is useful when not all the tests can pass on a given system.
Example:
# export TESTS="ping_ipv4 ping_ipv6"
# ./bridge_vlan_aware.sh
TEST: ping [PASS]
TEST: ping6 [PASS]

These tests set up mirroring in a situation that the configuration is
incorrect, i.e. mirrored packets, if any, are not supposed to reach
destination tunnel device. Then the configuration is rectified and
mirroring is checked to have started working.
