selftests: mptcp: join: properly kill background tasks

commit 852b644acbce1529307a4bb283752c4e77b5cda7 upstream.

The 'run_tests' function is executed in the background, but killing its
associated PID would not kill the children tasks running in the
background.

To properly kill all background tasks, 'kill -- -PID' could be used, but
this requires kill from procps-ng. Instead, all children tasks are
listed using 'ps', and 'kill' is called with all PIDs of this group.
