In case of "external" errors when preparing the environment for the TProxy tests, the subtests were marked as skipped. This is fine but it means these errors are ignored. On MPTCP Public CI, we do want to catch such issues and mark the selftest as failed if there are such issues. We can then use mptcp_lib_fail_if_expected_feature() helper that has been recently added to fail if needed.
