In practical terms, passt doesn't benefit from the additional
protection offered by the AGPL over the GPL, because it's not
suitable to be executed over a computer network.

Further, restricting the distribution under the version 3 of the GPL
wouldn't provide any practical advantage either, as long as the passt
codebase is concerned, and might cause unnecessary compatibility
dilemmas.

Change licensing terms to the GNU General Public License Version 2,
or any later version, with written permission from all current and
past contributors, namely: myself, David Gibson, Laine Stump, Andrea
Bolognani, Paul Holzinger, Richard W.M. Jones, Chris Kuhn, Florian
Weimer, Giuseppe Scrivano, Stefan Hajnoczi, and Vasiliy Ulyanov.

<title>test: Switch to qemu -netdev stream option instead of using qrap</title>

qemu commit 13c6be96618c ("net: stream: add unix socket") introduces
support for native AF_UNIX support, finally making qrap useless.

We can't quite drop that yet until a qemu release includes it, and
then we'll need to wait a while for users to switch anyway, but at
least for tests, we can use that support.

That's the default port for iperf3, which also means that it's quite
likely in use on my test machine. Use different port numbers: recycle
the scheme we use in tests for passt and pasta's demo, use 5221-5224
(a bit shorter) for the slirp4netns container in Podman's demo.

A cd to __STATEDIR__ results in a rather long command, that's not
very readable. Jump between directories using .. and relative paths,
once we're there.

Instead of using the 'temp' and 'tempdir' DSL directives to create
temporary files, use fixed paths relative to __STATEDIR__.  This has two
advantages:
  1) The files are automatically cleaned up if the tests fail (and even if
     that doesn't work they're easier to clean up manuall)
  2) When debugging tests it's easier to figure out which of the temporary
     files are relevant to whatever's going wrong

Given that a three-way git merge was enough to cope with context
changes in man pages, it's probably a good idea to enable that for
'git am' in the demo too.

For some reason using https to clone from the passt git repo is very slow,
at least from network-distant places.  Use git protocol in the demo instead
to avoid a tedious wait to get the source.

Commit 41c02e10 ("tests: Use nmap-ncat instead of openbsd netcat for pasta
tests") updated the pasta tests to use the nmap version of ncat instead of
the openbsd version, for greater portability.

For some upcoming changes, however, we'll be wanting to use socat.
"socat" can do everything "ncat" can and more, so let's move all the
tests using host tools (either directly on the host or via mbuto
generated images) to using socat instead.
