The long UNIX socket path caused problems and the workaround was to shorten the test names but a real solution is to ensure that the path is always short. This can be done by setting the current working directory for the swtpm process to the machine folder which also holds the socket and, in addition, setting the current working directory for the qemu process to the same folder. Then we can use 'tpm/socket' as path which is ensured to be below the limit of 108 characters.
