`tls.bash` helper was adapted to the new helper scripts location. The `setup.bash` helper saw a bugfix (expanding the array properly) and updates the container default config to configure for IPv4 explicitly.
The IPv4 default was added after recent Docker pushes and I saw weird IPv6 related errors in the logs.. now we're sure IPv4 is the default during tests.
Added functionality to check if a process is running:
- This change adds a helper function to check whether a program is running inside a container or not.
- This added the need for a function like `_run_in_container` but allowing for providing an explicit container name.
- Future PRs can use this helper function now to check whether a process is running or not. This was done for the tests of Fail2Ban, but can be used for other tests in the future as well.

chore: Restructured BATS flags in `Makefile`
The `Makefile` has seen a bit of a restructuring when it comes to flags:
1. The `MAKEFLAGS` variables is used by `make`, and allows for adding additional flags that can be used within in recursive calls (via `$(MAKE)`) too, thus DRY approach.
2. The flags for calling BATS were adjusted. `--no-parallelize-within-files` has been added as well to ensure tests _inside_ a single file are run sequentially.
`dms-test` prefix matching changed to expect a `_` suffix as a delimiter.

docs: Add a note regarding output from running tests in parallel
The current `test/test_helper/common.bash` was getting large. Setup logic has been extracted out into a new file.
`common.bash` resides in a directory named `test_helper/`, the `test_` prefix is redundant.
As an interim solution this provides a new approach for the updated tests, while the "old" tests can use the "old" `common.bash`. Eventually all tests should migrate to the new approach in `helper/` instead of the older `test_helper/`.
The new helper files are located under `test/helper/` (_which drops the `test_` prefix_). The new and updated helpers apply the new naming convention for ENV variables (_such as `CONTAINER_NAME` or `IMAGE_NAME`_).
---
Some refactoring occurred, including new methods like `_run_in_container()` and `_default_teardown()`.
---
I encountered a situation before in which the updated tests would fail because there were collisions of ENV names in the tests (_for example with `CONTAINER_NAME`_).
