Subject: [PATCH net v2 01/17] selftests: forwarding: Skip test when no interfaces are specified

As explained in [1], the forwarding selftests are meant to be run with
either physical loopbacks or veth pairs. The interfaces are expected to
be specified in a user-provided forwarding.config file or as command
line arguments. By default, this file is not present and the tests fail:

 # make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net/forwarding run_tests
 [...]
 TAP version 13
 1..102
 # timeout set to 45
 # selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh
 # Command line is not complete. Try option "help"
 # Failed to create netif
 not ok 1 selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh # exit=1
 [...]

Fix by skipping a test if interfaces are not provided either via the
configuration file or command line arguments.

 # make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net/forwarding run_tests
 [...]
 TAP version 13
 1..102
 # timeout set to 45
 # selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh
 # SKIP: Cannot create interface. Name not specified
 ok 1 selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh # SKIP
