Come on, this is just a test. We *really* don't care if an ISO
we use to test ACPI is using an exploitable version of grub.
Wait, I thought we were only talking about tappy here? The ISO binaries
should certainly *not* be bundled in the QEMU tarballs (they are too big
already anyway, we should rather think of moving the firmware binaries out
of the tarball instead).

IIUC there are three things we are discussing
- biosbits source
- biosbits image
- tappy
Oh well, I missed that part of the discussion so far since the corresponding
patches did not make it to the mailing list ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway, that's just another indication that it might not be the right fit
for inclusion into the QEMU source tree. So either download it similar to
(or included in) the avocado tests, or maybe another solution would be to
have a separate "qemu-ci" or "qemu-testing" repository for stuff like this ... ?
