To test the code under the influence of time jumps, add the option
(--timewarp) to the VM tests to reset the clock all the time, which
makes the wall clock time jump speed up 20x, causing gettimeofday()
to be unreliable for timeout calculations.

In order to handle regulatory domain requests, crda needs to be
installed on the host, but we also need to install a uevent helper in
the VM so that it gets executed (since we don't run udev).

If there's code coverage analysis data, copy it out of the VM
to be able to analyse it later. Also add a description to the
README file about how to use it.

In some cases, e.g., with the VM tests if the VM crashes, it
can be useful to know which tests should have run but didn't
(or didn't finish). In order to catch these more easily, add
an option to prefill the database with all tests at the very
beginning of the testing (in a new NOTRUN state) and use the
option in the VM tests.

Create a results.db in the output directory when running
the tests in a VM. To make that easier, create the tables
in the python script if they don't exist.

Instead of running on the host, it can be useful to run in a
VM, particularly to test kernel rather than userspace changes,
so add a few scripts that allow doing so easily.
The basic idea is that the VM kernel is the same architecture
as the host kernel, so the host's root filesystem can be used
(in read-only mode) to run everything. Only a log filesystem
is mounted read-write and will get all the test output.
The kernel console output is collected to a special 'console'
file in the logs directory and kernel crashes are detected.
