Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/6] selftests: net: py: extract tool logic

The main use of the ip() wrapper over cmd() is that it can parse JSON.
cmd("ip -j link show") will return stdout as a string, and test has
to call json.loads(). With ip("link show", json=True) the return value
will be already parsed.

More tools (ethtool, bpftool etc.) support the --json switch.
To avoid having to wrap all of them individually create a tool()
helper.

Switch from -j to --json (for ethtool).
While at it consume the netns attribute at the ip() level.
