I'm fine with this. Some other helper scripts maybe go into the contrib
directory in the future.

The first patch added 4 new environemnt variables. Unless you plan to add more,
I think it's fine with the environemnt variable approach.

Overall, the changes do not affect core part of blktests. This looks good to me.

I'm not sure if the NVME_TARGET_CONTROL script command line interface will be
stable or not (setup/cleanup, --subsysnqn, --subsys-uuid and --hostnqn options).
I wonder the disucssion with Hannes may affect it.
