We have added new capabilities to the testbench plumbing to automatically
deal with gzip-compressed files. This also permits to use the wait_seq_check
function to work for gzip tests as well. The known-timing-sensitive
gzipwr_large test now makes use of the new capabilities. This enables us
to more reliably detect when we can savely shutdown the tested instance.
This commit also adds an ability to "abort" the full testbench run on
first test failure. This is especially useful during CI.
Also now permit interactivly running tests without explicitly setting
$srcdir. This now works if we are inside ./tests and fails, as before,
when we are in a different directory.

This is required to support parallel test runs.
Among others, make thise files dynamic:
* test-spool
* rsyslog.input
* rsyslog.out*.log
* tmp.in
Also:
* convert presort test statement to function
* cleanup imfile truncation test
* cleanup imfile-growing-file-id test
some cruft was left due to copy and paste error
* serialize mysql tests
Support tools (like tcpflood) are also upgraded to support the
necessary dynamic port.s
This is part of the effort to make parallel testing possible.
We move parts of the cleanup to the buildbot cleanup, as we cannot
clean out instances on each test when we run parallel tests.
changes some of the test commands to use bash functions
includes some small bug fixes to tests where bugs were
previously not seen due to different plumbing.
