32c5e05479 tests: Move distro image download to asset build makefile
Rather than directly download distro images from the test scripts, handle
all the downloads during the test asset build, then just clone them for
the tests themselves.  This avoids repeated downloads which can be very
slow when debugging failing tests.

7bcc5930a6 Invoke specific qemu-system-* binaries
A lot of tests and examples invoke qemu with the command "kvm".  However,
as far as I can tell, "kvm" being aliased to the appropriate qemu system
binary is Debian specific.  The binary names from qemu upstream -
qemu-system-$ARCH - also aren't universal, but they are more common (they
should be good for both Debian and Fedora at least).

In order to still get KVM acceleration when available, we use the option
"-M accel=kvm:tcg" to tell qemu to try using either KVM or TCG in that
order

A number of the places we invoked "kvm" are expecting specifically an x86
guest, and so it's also safer to explicitly invoke qemu-system-x86_64.

Some others appear to be independent of the target arch (just wanting the
same arch as the host to allow KVM acceleration).  Although I suspect there
may be more subtle x86 specific options in the qemu command lines, attempt
to preserve arch independence by using $(uname -m).

c4d8a77512 tests: qemu-system-ppc64le isn't a thing
Several tests run pp64le guests using "qemu-system-ppc64le".  But, at the
system level there's no difference between ppc64 and ppc64le - it's the
same hardware, just placed into different endian modes by OS early boot
code.  Reflecting that, qemu only supplies a single "qemu-system-ppc64".

Some distros alias qemu-system-ppc64le to qemu-system-ppc64 (Debian does),
but it's best not to count on this (Fedora doesn't, for example).

25f515831c Makefile: Use $(BIN) and $(MANPAGES) variable to simplify several targets
There are several places which explicitly list the various generated
binaries, even though a $(BIN) variable already lists them.  There are
several more places that list all the manpage files, introduce a
$(MANPAGES) variable to remove that repetition as well.

Tweak the generation of pasta.1 as a link to passt.1 so it's not just made
as a side effect of the pasta target.

ca0c33ae5b Tweak dhclient arguments for readability
A number of tests and examples use dhclient in both IPv4 and IPv6 modes.
We use "dhclient -6" for IPv6, but usually just "dhclient" for IPv4.  Add
an explicit "-4" argument to make it more clear and explicit.

In addition, when dhclient is run from within pasta it usually won't be
"real" root, and so will not have access to write the default global pid
file.  This results in a mostly harmless but irritating error:
    Can't create /var/run/dhclient.pid: Permission denied
We can avoid that by using the --no-pid flag to dhclient.

21e9cf7b95 tests: Simplify explicit checks for command success
A number of individual test cases use '*out' commands to check for success
of specific commands they've issued.  Now that the test harness is testing
for success of all issued commands as a matter of course, we no longer need
to do this.

550e2744ab test/distro/ubuntu: Use DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive for apt on 22.04
Removing the needrestart package doesn't seem to work anymore, and
I'm getting again prompts to restart services after installing gcc
and make: export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive before installing
packages to avoid that.

154216d483 test/distro/ubuntu: Skip apt-get update for 16.04 on powerpc
Some recent change to xenial-updates broke dependencies for gcc,
it can't be installed anymore. Skipping apt-get update leaves gcc
dependencies in a consistent state, though.

ec7b65fd79 test/distro: Avoid race between display of ns_msg and netcat exiting
The shell might report 'nc -6 -l -p 9999 > /tmp/ns_msg' as done
even after the subsequent 'echo' is done: wait one second before
reading out /tmp/ns_msg, to ensure we read that instead of the
"Done" message.

6e61b4040a test: Add distribution tests for several architectures and kernel versions
The new tests check build and a simple case with pasta sending a
short message in both directions (namespace to init, init to
namespace).

Tests cover a mix of Debian, Fedora, OpenSUSE and Ubuntu combinations
on aarch64, i386, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64.

Builds tested starting from approximately glibc 2.19, gcc 4.7, and
actual functionality approximately from 4.4 kernels, glibc 2.25,
gcc 4.8, all the way up to current glibc/gcc/kernel versions.
