Fix race conditions in forwarding tests

As described in
https://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-dev/2016-December/035629.html,
I'm seeing peculiar failures in the forwarding tests on some systems. 
I suspect (though can't prove) that this may be the result of a race
condition similar to that fixed in portable
b3c19151cba2c0ed01b27f55de0d723ad07ca98f, so the attached patch
converts the other tests in regress/forwarding.sh to use the same mux
socket approach introduced in that commit.

I can only test this by making an upload to Debian unstable, so I'll
let you know if this improves matters ...
