Sorry, I will do that next time.

I know that those tests were necessary with the regex implementation and
now they may seem to be an overkill. But on the other hand, I think that
having selftests for bpftool in general is a good thing, so I didn't
want throw them away despite the easier implementation of my patches. I
might follow up with some more tests covering the other subcommands in
future.
