Many of the current virtio-*-pci device types actually represent
3 different types of devices:
* virtio 1.0 non-transitional devices
* virtio 1.0 transitional devices
* virtio 0.9 ("legacy device" in virtio 1.0 terminology)
That would be just an annoyance if it didn't break our device/bus
compatibility QMP interfaces. With these multi-purpose device
types, there's no way to tell management software that
transitional devices and legacy devices require a Conventional
PCI bus.
The multi-purpose device types would also prevent us from telling
management software what's the PCI vendor/device ID for them,
because their PCI IDs change at runtime depending on the bus
where they were plugged.
This patch adds separate device types for each of those virtio
device flavors:
- virtio-*-pci: the existing multi-purpose device types
- Configurable using `disable-legacy` and `disable-modern`
properties
- Legacy driver support is automatically enabled/disabled
depending on the bus where it is plugged
- Supports Conventional PCI and PCI Express buses
(but Conventional PCI is incompatible with
disable-legacy=off)
- Changes PCI vendor/device IDs at runtime
- virtio-*-pci-transitional: virtio-1.0 device supporting legacy drivers
- Supports Conventional PCI buses only, because
it has a PIO BAR
- virtio-*-pci-non-transitional: modern-only
- Supports both Conventional PCI and PCI Express buses
The existing TYPE_* macros for these types will point to an
abstract base type, so existing casts in the code will keep
working for all variants.
A simple test script (tests/acceptance/virtio_version.py) is
included, to check if the new device types are equivalent to
using the `disable-legacy` and `disable-modern` options.

This test boots a Linux kernel, and checks that the given command
line was effective in two ways:
* It makes the kernel use the set "console device" as a console
* The kernel records the command line as expected in the console
Given that way too many error conditions may occur, and detecting the
kernel boot progress status may not be trivial, this test relies on a
timeout to handle unexpected situations. Also, it's *not* tagged as a
quick test for obvious reasons.
It may be useful, while interactively running/debugging this test, or
tests similar to this one, to show some of the logging channels.
Example:
$ avocado --show=QMP,console run boot_linux_console.py

This patch adds the very minimum infrastructure necessary for writing
and running functional/acceptance tests, including:
* Documentation
* The avocado_qemu.Test base test class
* One example tests (version.py)
Additional functionality is expected to be added along the tests that
require them.
