[PATCH v2 00/14] tests/vm: Add support for aarch64 VMs

[Robert Foley]

This is version 2 of the patch series to 
add support for aarch64 VMs.  
 - Ubuntu 18.04 aarch64 VM
 - CentOS 8 aarch64 VM

V1: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-02/msg01180.html

Changes in version 2
- Most changes relate to the patch: "Add workaround to consume console".
   - We changed this patch to make it cleaner.
   - We added a ConsoleSocket, which slots in for the current console socket
     with the difference being that we drain this socket in the background on a
     callback basis.  
   - We also made the logging of the console to file optional
 - Relocated the log file path and name. For example:
   ~/.cache/qemu-vm/ubuntu.aarch64.install.log 
- Made one fix for a hang issue we were seeing.
  - The issue was a timing problem around a reboot where the
     ubuntu.aarch64 script assumed the reboot guaranteed that 
     the next successful command would occur after the reboot.
   - The fix is to simply make it more deterministic by shutting down the
     VM and restarting it instead of issuing the reboot.
- Made a few changes to CentOS VM to update its dependencies properly.
- We made a few changes related to latin1 vs utf-8.
  We found in some cases the latin1 is needed for chars coming out of the i
  socket which do not have a utf-8 equivalent.
