fix: don't treat dd exit code as pass/fail for proc file reads

dd commonly returns non-zero when reading from /proc files due to
short reads and partial block counts, even when data is successfully
read. This is environmental (happens in virtme-ng VMs but not native).

Remove the dd exit code check from test 16 — the file's readability
is already verified by test 7, and the slab filter path is properly
validated by test_filter.py --filter-slab.
