perf-test has the option --skip to provide a list of tests to skip.
However, this option does not work with shell scripts.

This patch passes the skiplist to run_shell_tests, so that also shell
scripts could be skipped using --skip.

In such cases please provide an example of the usage you're fixing, what
was it that you tried that didn't work and that now works?

Its obviously a fix, so I'm applying it.

So I added this to the commit log:

Committer tests:

Tests 79 onwards are shell tests:

Before:
