The same way the arch tag is being used as a fallback for the arch
parameter, let's do the same for QEMU's machine and avoid some boiler
plate code.
This is now possible because, since Avocado 72.0, it's possible to use
tags with names that match the machine types on QEMU.

Currently a test can describe the target architecture binary that it
should primarily be run with, be setting a single tag value.
The same approach is expected to be done with other QEMU aspects to be
tested, for instance, the machine type and accelerator, so let's
generalize the logic into a utility method.

Change 32558ce7a4 introduced specific directories for the socket dir
when using python/qemu/machine.py:QEMUMachine. iotests probably
didn't catch the condition that two simultaneous QEMUMachine
instances, without manually set temporary or socket dirs would clash.
Having two QEMUMachine instances is a condition expected for many
acceptance tests, and it's already used by the migration tests.

Current acceptance test will not run properly in powerpc
environment due qemu target is different from arch, this
usually matches, except with bi-endian architectures like ppc64.
uname would return `ppc64` or `ppc64le` based `big` or `little`
endian but qemu `target` is always `ppc64`. Let's handle it.

A test can, optionally, be tagged for one or many architectures. If a
test has been tagged for a single architecture, there's a high chance
that the test won't run on other architectures. This changes the
default order of choosing a default target architecture to use based
on the 'arch' tag value first.
The precedence order is for choosing a QEMU binary to use for a test
is now:
* qemu_bin parameter
* arch parameter
* arch tag value (for example, x86_64 if "🥑 tags=arch:x86_64
is used)
This means that if one runs:
$ avocado run -p qemu_bin=/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 test.py
No arch parameter or tag will influence the selection of the QEMU
target binary. If one runs:
$ avocado run -p arch=ppc64 test.py
The target binary selection mechanism will attempt to find a binary
such as "ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64". And finally, if one runs
a test that is tagged (in its docstring) with "arch:aarch64":
$ avocado run aarch64.py
The target binary selection mechanism will attempt to find a binary
such as "aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64".
At this time, no provision is made to cancel the execution of tests if
the arch parameter given (manually) does not match the test "arch"
tag, but it may be a useful default behavior to be added in the
future.

It's useful to define the architecture that should be used in
situations such as:
* the intended target of the QEMU binary to be used on tests
* the architecture of code to be run within the QEMU binary, such
as a kernel image or a full blown guest OS image
This commit introduces both a test parameter and a test instance
attribute, that will contain such a value.
Now, when the "arch" test parameter is given, it will influence the
selection of the default QEMU binary, if one is not given explicitly
by means of the "qemu_img" parameter.

This change adds the possibility to write acceptance tests with multi
virtual machine support. It's done keeping the virtual machines objects
stored in a test attribute (dictionary). This dictionary shouldn't be
accessed directly but through the new method added `get_vm`. This new
method accept a list of args (that will be added as virtual machine
arguments) and an optional name argument. The name is the key that
identify a single virtual machine along the test machines available. If
a name without a machine is informed a new machine will be instantiated.
The current usage of vm in tests will not be broken by this change since
it keeps a property called vm in the base test class. This property only
calls the new method `get_vm` with default parameters (no args and
'default' as machine name).

This is a simple move of Python code that wraps common QEMU
functionality, and are used by a number of different tests
and scripts.
By treating that code as a real Python module, we can more easily:
* reuse code
* have a proper place for the module's own unittests
* apply a more consistent style
* generate documentation
