Florian Westphal 5ceb87dc76 selftests: netfilter: nft_queue.sh: fix spurious timeout on debug kernel
The sctp selftest is very slow on debug kernels.

Its possible that the nf_queue listener program exits due to timeout
before first sctp packet is processed.

In this case socat hangs until script times out.
Fix this by removing the -t option where possible and kill the test
program once the file transfer/socat has exited.

-t sets SO_RCVTIMEO, its inteded for the 'ping' part of the selftest
where we want to make sure that packets get reinjected properly without
skipping a second queue request.

While at it, add a helper to compare the (binary) files instead of diff.
The 'diff' part was copied from a another sub-test that compares text.

Let helper dump file sizes on error so we can see the progress made.

Tested on an old 2010-ish box with a debug kernel and 100 iterations.

This is a followup to the earlier filesize reduction change.
