selftests: drv-net: add a warning for bkg + shell + terminate
Joe Damato reports that some shells will fork before running
the command when python does "sh -c $cmd", while bash on my
machine does an exec of $cmd directly.
This will have implications for our ability to terminate
the child process on various configurations of bash and
other shells. Warn about using
bkg(... shell=True, termininate=True)
most background commands can hopefully exit cleanly (exit_wait).
