Subject: [PATCH net-next 08/10] selftests: defer: Introduce DEFER_PAUSE_ON_FAIL

The fact that all cleanup (ideally) goes through the defer framework makes
debugging of these commands a bit tricky. However, this also gives us a
nice point to place a hook along the lines of PAUSE_ON_FAIL. When the
environment variable DEFER_PAUSE_ON_FAIL is set, and a cleanup command
results in non-zero exit status, show a bit of debuginfo and give the user
an opportunity to interrupt the execution altogether.
