[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Bootstrap Python venv and acceptance/functional tests

[Cleber Rosa]

TL;DR
=====

Allow acceptance tests to be run with `make check-acceptance`.

Details
=======

This introduces a Python virtual environment that will be setup within
the QEMU build directory, that will contain the exact environment that
tests may require.

There's one current caveat: it requires Python 3, as it's based on the
venv module.  This was based on some discussions and perception about
standardizing on Python 3, but can easily be made to accommodate Python
2 as well.

Commit summary
==============

Cleber Rosa (2):
  Bootstrap Python venv for tests
  Acceptance tests: add make rule for running them
