selftest/net/forwarding: declare NETIFS p9 p10
[ Upstream commit 71da1aec215290e249d09c44c768df859f3a3bba ]
The recent GRE selftests defined NUM_NETIFS=10. If the users copy
forwarding.config.sample to forwarding.config directly, they will get
error "Command line is not complete" when run the GRE tests, because
create_netif_veth() failed with no interface name defined.
Fix it by extending the NETIFS with p9 and p10.
