    tc-testing: Restore original behaviour for namespaces in tdc · 489ce2f4
    Lucas Bates authored
    This patch restores the original behaviour for tdc prior to the
    introduction of the plugin system, where the network namespace
    functionality was split from the main script.
    
    It introduces the concept of required plugins for testcases,
    and will automatically load any plugin that isn't already
    enabled when said plugin is required by even one testcase.
    
    Additionally, the -n option for the nsPlugin is deprecated
    so the default action is to make use of the namespaces.
    Instead, we introduce -N to not use them, but still create
    the veth pair.
    
    buildebpfPlugin's -B option is also deprecated.
    
    If a test cases requires the features of a specific plugin
    in order to pass, it should instead include a new key/value
    pair describing plugin interactions:
    
            "plugins": {
                    "requires": "buildebpfPlugin"
            },
    
    A test case can have more than one required plugin: a list
    can be inserted as the value for 'requires'.
