Posted patch https://review.gluster.org/c/glusterfs/+/20682 that
achieves this.

I do not like the fact that I use the gluster CLI in run-scripts.sh,
alternatives welcome.

If it looks functionally fine, then I will merge it into the big patch
[1] that we are using to run multiple tests (so that at least we start
getting retry logs from there).

Prior to this I had done this within include.rc and in cleanup, but that
gets invoked twice (at least) per test, and so generated far too many
empty tarballs for no reason.

Also, the change above does not prevent half complete logs if any test
calls cleanup in between (as that would create a tarball in between that
would be overwritten by the last invocation of cleanup).
