Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] selftests: pmtu.sh: Kill nettest processes launched
 in subshell.

When using "run_cmd <command> &", then "$!" refers to the PID of the
subshell used to run <command>, not the command itself. Therefore
nettest_pids actually doesn't contain the list of the nettest commands
running in the background. So cleanup() can't kill them and the nettest
processes run until completion (fortunately they have a 5s timeout).

Fix this by defining a new command for running processes in the
background, for which "$!" really refers to the PID of the command run.

Also, double quote variables on the modified lines, to avoid shellcheck
warnings.

Fixes: ece1278a9b81 ("selftests: net: add ESP-in-UDP PMTU test")
