[PATCH 1/3] tests/acceptance: Automatic set -cpu to the test vm

[Wainer dos Santos Moschetta]

This introduces a new feature to the functional tests: automatic setting of
the '-cpu VALUE' option to the created vm if the test is tagged with
'cpu:VALUE'. The 'cpu' property is made available to the test object as well.

For example, for a simple test as:

    def test(self):
        """
        :avocado: tags=cpu:host
        """
        self.assertEqual(self.cpu, "host")
        self.vm.launch()

The resulted QEMU evocation will be like:

    qemu-system-x86_64 -display none -vga none -chardev 
socket,id=mon,path=/var/tmp/avo_qemu_sock_pdgzbgd_/qemu-1135557-monitor.sock 
-mon chardev=mon,mode=control -cpu host
