Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged test updates to replace the shut-down kernel.org FTP source with a local server, preventing future integration failures. Added python3-pyftpdlib to dependencies. Approved after minor naming feedback.

Issue body
kernel.org has just shut down the ftp server, so we need to use a different one.
To avoid this happening again, the test starts a local ftp server.
This adds python3-pyftpdlib to the autopkgtest dependencies.
