a52c68443d qemu_command: Always use modern syntax of '-m'
Specify the memory size by using '-m size=2048k' instead of just '-m 2'.

The new syntax is used when memory hotplug is enabled. To preserve
memory sizing, if memory hotplug is disabled the size is rounded down to
the nearest mebibyte.

0b464cd84f tests: Drop more QEMU driver config overrides
These are allegedly necessary to keep the output consistent,
but now that we're using a privileged config for the driver we
get the desired behavior out of the box, and as a bonus the
paths match what you would actually see on a regular host.

98c4e3d073 qemu: Use '-machine acpi=on/off' instead of deprecated '-no-acpi'
QEMU deprecated the '-no-acpi' option, thus we should switch to the
modern way to use '-machine'.

Certain ARM machine types don't support ACPI. Given our historically
broken design of using '<acpi/>' without attribute to enable ACPI and
qemu's default of enabling it without '-no-acpi' such configurations
would not work.

Now when qemu reports whether given machine type supports ACPI we can do
a better decision and un-break those configs. Unfortunately not
retroactively.

1fa20cd87c tests: Unify input files for firmware tests
Most of the differences, such as those in the domain name or
amount of memory, are fairly harmless, but they still make it
more cumbersome than necessary to directly compare different
input (and output) files.

More importantly, the use of unversioned machine types in some
of the test cases results in the descriptor-based autoselection
logic being effectively skipped, because the compatible machine
types as listed in them are only the versioned variants.

926594dcc8 qemu: Add implicit watchdog for q35 machine types
The iTCO watchdog is part of the q35 machine type since its inception,
we just did not add it implicitly.

578ac25c6a conf: support stateless UEFI firmware
Normally when an UEFI firmware is marked as read-only, an associated
NVRAM file will be created. Some builds of UEFI firmware, however, wish
to remain stateless and so will be read-only, but never have any NVRAM
file. To represent this concept a 'stateless' tristate bool attribute
is introduced on the <loader/> element.

There are rather a large number of permutations to consider.

With default firmware selection

  *  <os/>

     => Historic default, no change

  *  <os>
       <loader stateless='yes'/>
     </os>

     => Explicit version of historic default, no change

  *  <os>
       <loader stateless='no'/>
     </os>

      => Invalid, bios is always stateless

With manual legacy BIOS selection

  *  <os>
       <loader>/path/to/seabios</loader>
       ...
     </os>

     => Historic default, no change

  *  <os>
       <loader stateless='yes'>/path/to/seabios</loader>
       ...
     </os>

     => Explicit version of historic default, no change

  *  <os>
       <loader stateless='no'>/path/to/seabios</loader>
       ...
     </os>

      => Invalid, bios is always stateless

With manual UEFI selection

  *  <os>
       <loader type='pflash'>/path/to/edk2</loader>
       ...
     </os>

     => Historic default, no change

  *  <os>
       <loader type='pflash' stateless='yes'>/path/to/edk2</loader>
       ...
     </os>

     => Skip auto-filling NVRAM / template

  *  <os>
       <loader type='pflash' stateless='no'>/path/to/edk2</loader>
       ...
     </os>

     => Explicit version of historic default, no change

With automatic firmware selection

  *  <os firmware='bios'/>

     => Historic default, no change

  *  <os firmware='bios'>
       <loader stateless='yes'/>
     </os>

     => Explicit version of historic default, no change

  *  <os firmware='bios'>
       <loader stateless='no'/>
     </os>

      => Invalid, bios is always stateless

  *  <os firmware='uefi'/>

     => Historic default, no change

  *  <os firmware='uefi'>
       <loader stateless='yes'/>
     </os>

     => Skip auto-filling NVRAM / template

  *  <os firmware='uefi'>
       <loader stateless='no'/>
     </os>

     => Explicit version of historic default, no change
