Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.
This PR relaxes the xdp-tools test runner behavior by treating two known upstream promiscuous-mode failures as non-fatal, so XDP validation doesn’t fail on Ubuntu 24.04+ due to an upstream issue.
Changes:
- Add a logger and a allowlist of known upstream-failing tests.
- Split abnormal xdp-tools test results into known vs unexpected failures.
- Log known failures as warnings while still failing on unexpected ones.

The PR description says these failures are specific to Ubuntu 24.04+ (kernel 6.8+), but the code unconditionally ignores them on all distros/kernels. This risks masking real regressions on other platforms. Consider gating the allowlist by OS/version and/or kernel version (e.g., only apply when running on Ubuntu >= 24.04 or kernel >= 6.8), and otherwise treat these as unexpected failures.

When known is non-empty, the code skips checking result's exit code entirely. That can allow non-test-related failures (e.g., runner crash, bad invocation, missing deps) to pass as long as the parsed test list only contains known failures. A safer approach is to still validate the exit code in the known case—e.g., allow only the specific failure exit code(s) that correspond to test failures, and fail on any other non-zero exit code.

Summary
Skip known upstream xdp-tools promiscuous mode test failures (test_promiscuous_selfload, test_promiscuous_preload) that consistently fail on Ubuntu 24.04+ due to an upstream xdp-tools issue unrelated to Azure/LISA. These failures are now logged as warnings instead of causing the entire test to fail.
