Initial vmtest power8 support and TestSimple test.
This is not completely functional power8 tests, but does allow some
tests to be run on power now. On a xenial ppc64el host, this will work:
nosetests3 tests/vmtests/test_simple.py
The TestSimple test pushes curtin through its "automatic" installation,
that does not require storage config.
power8 changes:
- add a TestSimple that tests that curtin correctly installs
when no storage config is provided (also runs on other arch).
- tools/launch: generalize console_name (console=) for command line.
- includes 'launch-by-label' branch (necessary for unstable virtio paths
on different versions of qemu).
helpers/common:
- cleanups to prep partitioning in code to just be more readable.
tools/xkvm minor improvements:
- allow passing in 'file=/path/to/file.img' instead of just
/path/to/file.img
- allow shortened 'fmt=raw' in addition to 'format=raw'.
tools/vmtest-sync-images can now take a release as an argument:
./tools/vmtest-sync-images xenial
will sync xenial images and no others.
