Docker testing on patchew has long suffered from 'make check' hangings. The cleanness of VM testing is the cure. Now let's add a CentOS 7 image to run the tests. It's purely ad-hoc, but hopefully still easy to understand and use for everyone.
The first patch makes passing source code from host to the container in VM working, and is a nice clean up. The second patch makes caches work, to speed up repetitive runs like on patchew. The last patch adds the new image that does the job. Two out of three docker tests running on patchew.org are added to the image. I'll wait for Peter to fix the 'docker-test-quick@centos6' hanging (oob test) before adding it too.
