On systems where `ifconfig` is not available (e.g., modern Debian), the `kci_test_promote_secondaries` test fails. Wrap the call in a check.
Additionally, `do_test_address_proto` fails on iproute2 versions that lack support for `proto` in `ip address` commands. Add a minimal feature check and skip the test with a proper message if unsupported. These changes allow the tests to run and report SKIP instead of FAIL on platforms with older tools.
