selftests: mptcp: join: mark tests with data corruption as failed

check_transfer() compares the input and output files byte-by-byte using
`cmp -l "$in" "$out" | while read ...`. Because the while-loop body runs
in a subshell (the script sets neither lastpipe nor pipefail), the
fail_test call inside it -- which sets the global ret/last_test_failed --
and the `return 1` both act on the subshell, not on check_transfer().

check_transfer() thus always falls through to `return 0`, and any data
corruption affecting only the payload (leaving the subflow/PM counters
untouched) is silently reported as PASS.
