Research direction

Start with tests/scripts_retention.py, which the issue identifies as the existing SUT runner, and review the dependency in issue #58. The work is done when tlsfuzzer can select or generate key files, restart the server after crashes, and support running the SUT under valgrind or collecting core files.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

complex enhancement

Allow the tlsfuzzer to run the SUT by itself, needed to run the SUT with valgrind or to collect core files.

While the tests/scripts_retention.py essentially can do that, it's quite stupid about it – can't select key files (or generate them itself on demand), restart the server when it crashes, etc.

depends on #58
