tests: shell: autogenerate dump verification
Complete the automated shell tests with the verification of
the test file dump, only for positive tests and if the test
execution was successful.
It's able to generate the dump file with the -g option.
Example:
# ./run-tests.sh -g testcases/chains/0001jumps_0
The dump files are generated in the same path in the folder named
dumps/ with .nft extension.
It has been avoided the dump verification code in every test
file.
