Add a new selftest to verify netconsole's handling of messages that
exceed the packet size limit and require fragmentation. The test sends
messages with varying sizes and userdata, validating that:
1. Large messages are correctly fragmented and reassembled
2. Userdata fields are properly preserved across fragments
3. Messages work correctly with and without kernel release version
appending
The test creates a networking environment using netdevsim, sends
messages through /dev/kmsg, and verifies the received fragments maintain
message integrity.

Modify the cleanup function to remove all userdata keys created during the
test, instead of just deleting a single predefined key. This ensures a
more thorough cleanup of temporary resources.
Move the KEY_PATH variable definition inside the set_user_data function
to reduce global variables and improve encapsulation. The KEY_PATH
variable is now dynamically created when setting user data.
This change has no effect on the current test, while improving an
upcoming test that would create several userdata entries.

Split helper functions from the netconsole basic test into a separate
library file to enable reuse across different netconsole tests. This
change only moves the existing helper functions to lib/sh/lib_netcons.sh
while preserving the same test functionality.
The helpers provide common functions for:
- Setting up network namespaces and interfaces
- Managing netconsole dynamic targets
- Setting user data
- Handling test dependencies
- Cleanup operations
Do not make any change in the code, other than the mechanical
separation.
