Re: [PATCH v2] test: Fix printf error when debug is enabled

Running test pasta/tcp with debug enabled would get stuck with below error:

+ printf 'DEBUG: ns socat -u OPEN:__BASEPATH__/big.bin TCP6:[__GW6__%__IFNAME__]:10003\n' lib/term: line 38: printf: `_': invalid format character

The error occurs because printf interprets the % character as the start of a format specifier, and the following '_' isn't one of them.

Fix it by replacing 'printf "${*}"' with 'printf "%b" "${*}"'. Also update the docstring.
