Newer versions of mkswap (or at least the one in util-linux 2.34)
complain to stderr when they're formatting over a device that seems to
contain existing data:

    mkswap: /dev/sdf: warning: wiping old btrfs signature.

This is harmless (since the swap image does get written!) but the extra
golden output is flagged as a regression.  Update the mkswap usage in
this test to dump the stderr output to $seqres.full, and complain if the
exit code is nonzero.

This fixes a regression that the author noticed when testing btrfs and
generic/507 and generic/570 run sequentially.  generic/507 calls
_require_scratch_shutdown to see if the shutdown call is supported.
btrfs does not support that, so the test is _notrun.  This leaves the
scratch filesystem mounted, causing the _try_wipe_scratch_devs between
tests to fail.  When g/570 starts up, the scratch device still contains
Won't your previous patch "check: don't leave the scratch filesystem
mounted after _notrun" fix this issue as well? As _notrun won't leaves
scratch dev mounted & unwiped after that patch. Would you please confirm?

Thanks,
Eryu

leftovers from the failed attempt to run g/507, which is why the mkswap
command outputs the above warning.
