I just noticed these new tests print nested TAP output containing
subtest results with the same content as the mptcp_connect.sh test. In
other words, NIPA or other CIs will think the exact same tests are now
executed 4 times, e.g.

  # ok 2 - mptcp_connect: ping tests # time=2887ms

I will force new tests' prefixes to have different test names.
