feat(tunnel): introduce persistent tunnel state dir (#294)
* feat(tunnel): introduce persistent tunnel state dir

This diff introduces a persistent state directory for tunnels, so that
we can bootstrap them more quickly after the first time.

Part of https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/985

* fix: make tunnel dir optional

We have many tests where it does not make sense to explicitly
provide a tunnel dir because we're not using tunnels.

This should simplify setting up a session.

* fix(tunnel): repair tests

* final changes

* more cleanups

Directory github.com/ooni/probe-engine/experiment

This directory contains the implementation of all the supported experiments, one for each directory. The OONI spec repository contains a description of all the specified experiments.

Note that in the OONI spec repository experiments are called nettests. Originally, they were also called nettests here but that created confusion with nettests in ooni/probe-cli. Therefore, we now use the term experiment to indicate the implementation and the term nettest to indicate the user facing view of such implementation.

Note that some experiments implemented here are not part of the OONI specification. For example, the urlgetter experiment is not in the OONI spec repository. The reason why this happens is that urlgetter is an experiment "library" that other experiments use to implement their functionality.

Likewise, the example experiment is a minimal experiment that does nothing and you could use to bootstrap the implementation of a new experiment. Of course, this experiment is not part of the OONI specification.
