This adds boot Linux tests for x86_64, aarch64, ppc64, s390x
targets which, unlike others, tell QEMU to use KVM. Likewise
it was added cases for tcg.
The patch 01 introduce an infraestructure on avocado_qemu framework
so that:
a) simply tagging the test with `accel:kvm` (or `accel:tcg`) will
automatically set the corresponding '--accel' on the launched
QEMU;
a) test is canceled if the accelerator is not enabled in QEMU
binary and not present in the host.
Changes v1 -> v2:
- old patch 01 was removed becase the same feature is merged on
commit 74b56bb55395.
- old patch 02 became 01 on v2, and with a major re-implementation. The
bits that added the accel module is merged on commit 8b272e00186.
- old patch 03 was removed. Based on comments of ehabkost and crosa,
instead the boot_linux_console test suite got new cases which uses
the 'accel' tag to specify the use of kvm or tcg.
- Added patch 03 which refactor the handler of 'machine' tag that
was introduced on commit ba21bde930f.
