Networking for Xen guest virtual machines is commonly configured via
bridging in the host system between a physical interface and the
guest virtual interfaces.
To make it easier to test networking and use testimage with Xen guest
virtual machines, extend the bbclass that provides network configuration
for qemu machines for the Xen images to configure a Xen bridge and put
eth0 onto it when QB_XEN_HOST_BRIDGE is set.

Add a new minimal OEQA test case to run the Xen Test Framework
test runner in the standard testimage step. Tested with qemux86-64
and designed for compatibility with Arm when XTF supports it.
To enable, append to local.conf:
INHERIT += "testimage"
QEMU_USE_SLIRP = "1"
TEST_SERVER_IP = "127.0.0.1"
To run: bitbake -c testimage xtf-image
For inspection while it runs, at another shell prompt:
* Observe the image booting:
tail -f ${TMPDIR}/work/qemux86_64-*/xtf-image/*/testimage/qemu_boot_log.*
* Observe the tests running once boot has completed:
tail -f ${TMPDIR}/work/qemux86_64-*/xtf-image/*/temp/log.do_testimage
The XTF test sequence by default is a single XTF test case with minimal
hardware dependency to ensure that Xen is running, the Xen toolstack is
functional and XTF works. Additional XTF test cases for an image can be
configured via variables that are documented in the OEQA test case:
* XTF_TEST_CASES_POPULATE
* XTF_TEST_CASES_SKIP
* XTF_TEST_CASES_REQUIRE
Since testimage requires a functioning network to perform the tests on
the image and the qemu MACHINES do not have networking enabled
this commit provides a new qemuboot-testimage-network bbclass to add an
image postprocess command to enable a functional eth0 for qemu MACHINES.
