All platforms have a very limited path limit, so it isn't really
a macOS specific problem, rather....

It is a problem related to where the test suite is creating the
paths.
/var/folders/d7/rz20f6hd709c1ty8f6_6y_z40000gn/T/avo_qemu_sock_uh3w_dgc/
is way too deep a directory location.
It seems we just create this location using 'tempfile.TemporyDirectory'
to get a standard tmp dir.
Do you know why python is choosing
/var/folders/d7/rz20f6hd709c1ty8f6_6y_z40000gn/T/
as the temp dir ? Is that a standard location on macOS or is it
from some env variable you have set ?

I don't think this is the right fix really, because IMHO the problem
is the hugely long path, rather than the final socket name.
That said, there is redundancy in the path - avocado is passing in
a dierctory created using 'tempfile.TemporyDirectory' so there is no
reason why we need to add more entropy via the POD and the 'id(self)'
hex string.
IMHO avocado should pass in the 'name' parameter explicitly, using a
plain name and thus get a shorter string.
