[PATCH] rtla: add tests for tracefs instance cleanup

[Chaosheng Qu <chaosheng.qu.linux@gmail.com>]

rtla creates a tracefs instance per run (osnoise_top, osnoise_hist,
timerlat_top, timerlat_hist) and is expected to remove it again on the way
out. Nothing verifies that today, so a cleanup regression would only show up
as a confusing failure of the *next* run: tracefs_instance_create() can fail
with -EEXIST, and an interrupted run can leave stale tracer state behind.

tests/engine.sh already works around this by rmdir-ing leftover instances
before every test ("remove any dangling instances created by improperly
exited rtla runs"), which shows the gap is known but untested.

Add a test for the abnormal-exit paths that are actually hit in practice:

  - SIGINT during a run (interactive Ctrl-C)
  - rtla's own -d/--duration timer
  - a failing --on-threshold shell action
  - several interrupted runs in a row, followed by a normal run

These need rtla running in the background while the test signals it, which
engine.sh's check() (a single foreground command) cannot express, so the new
cleanup.t drives a helper script and emits TAP itself.

SIGTERM is covered too, but reported as a TAP TODO comment: rtla installs
handlers for SIGINT and SIGALRM only, so SIGTERM terminates the process
without running the cleanup path and leaks the instance. Keeping it visible
rather than turning it into a pass means a future regression in the paths
that *do* work is still caught. Once SIGTERM is handled, drop the TODO
comment and the case becomes a plain assertion.

The test needs root, tracefs and CONFIG_OSNOISE_TRACER, and skips cleanly
when tracefs is not mounted writable.
