[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t 1/6] runner: Use a bigger buffer for receiving test outputs

[Petri Latvala]

Stream-based receiving was able to use buffers of any size for read(),
but with datagrams we actually need to prepare for actual sizes. In
practice, some file dumps from tests come as single log packets of a
couple of kB.
