I already mailed this to Stephen, but the clarity, I am going to put this here as well.

I pushed gitlab-ci-parallel-test branch into repo.isc.org (ignore the gitlab-ci part for now, I did is for GitLab Ci, but the whole parallel thing is independent).

These are the changes that need to be made:

* Makefile - add parallelized tests as individual (.PHONY) targets and remove them from conf.sh.*
* Dynamically allocate a free port(s) for each individual parallelized test (something like this might be sufficient PORT=$$((32767+$$RANDOM)))
* Pass the port(s) to the ./run.sh
* Modify the individual tests to use the passed port(s) instead of 5300

Bonuses:

* Modify the parallelized tests to just used localhost addresses
* Modify the parallelized tests to use the address(es) passed from command line
* Modify the parallelized tests to cope with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
