The variable has to undergo word splitting, otherwise the shell tries
to find the variable value as an executable, which breaks in cases that
7c8a44b25c22 ("tests: shell: Allow wrappers to be passed as nft command")
intends to support.

Mention this in the shell tests README.

Fixes: d8ccad2a2b73 ("tests: cover baecd1cf2685 ("segtree: Fix segfault when restoring a huge interval set")")

The test I added (0068) is the only problematic occurrence.

This would be best applied on top of the README series (otherwise
the README still talks about $NFT being a path to a binary).

OK, then I'll mark this one as "Changed Requested" and will wait for
you to include this one in the v2 of you README series.

Thanks.
