Erik Skultety 0b8309af98 docs: testing: Adjust the docs on how to run container workloads locally 
The fact that we need ci/helper script to run the workloads remains
true, but the invocation has changed as of commit
eb41e45630 . We also extracted GitLab job
specs into a standalone ci/jobs.sh script which allows execution of any
container job we run in upstream CI locally, unlike the original
functionality which only allowed builds, tests and shell (although
important to say it could be adjusted with the right meson/ninja args).

lcitool also became mandatory as it enables the container execution
which replaced a Makefile we used to have for this purpose.

Libvirt API for virtualization

Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.

Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
