The same way the arch tag is being used as a fallback for the arch
parameter, let's do the same for QEMU's machine and avoid some boiler
plate code.
This is now possible because, since Avocado 72.0, it's possible to use
tags with names that match the machine types on QEMU.

On linux_initrd and empty_cpu_model tests the same effect of
calling QEMU through run() to inspect the terminated process is
achieved with a sequence of set_qmp_monitor() / launch() / wait()
commands on an QEMUMachine object. This patch changes those
tests to use QEMUMachine instead, so they follow the same pattern
to launch QEMU found on other acceptance tests.

The LinuxInitrd.test_with_2gib_file_should_work_with_linux_v4_16 test,
from tests/acceptance/linux_initrd.py, is currently failing to fetch
the "vmlinuz" file. The reason for the failure is that the Fedora
project retires older versions from the "dl.fedoraproject.org" URL,
and keeps them in "archives.fedoraproject.org". As an added note,
that test uses a Fedora 28 image, because of the specific Linux kernel
version requirements of the test.
For the sake of stability, let's use URLs from the archived and
supposedely ever stable URLs. The good news is that the currently
supported versions are also hosted on the later. This change limits
itself to change the URLs, while keeping the fetched files the same
(as can be evidenced by the unchanged hashes).
Documentation and the "vm tests" fedora definition were also updated.

Currently, some tests contains target architecture information, in the
form of a "x86_64" tag. But that tag is not respected in the default
execution, that is, "make check-acceptance" doesn't do anything with
it.
That said, even the target architecture handling currently present in
the "avocado_qemu.Test" class is pretty limited. For instance, by
default, it chooses a target based on the host architecture.
Because the original implementation of the tags feature in Avocado did
not include any time of namespace or "key:val" mechanism, no tag has
relation to another tag. The new implementation of the tags feature
from version 67.0 onwards, allows "key:val" tags, and because of that,
a test can be classified with a tag in a given key. For instance, the
new proposed version of the "boot_linux_console.py" test, which
downloads and attempts to run a x86_64 kernel, is now tagged as:
🥑 tags=arch:x86_64
This means that it can be filtered (out) when no x86_64 target is
available. At the same time, tests that don't have a "arch:" tag,
will not be filtered out.

The Avocado test runner attemps to find its INSTRUMENTED (that is,
Python based tests) in a manner that is as safe as possible to the
user. Different from plain Python unittest, it won't load or
execute test code on an operation such as:
$ avocado list tests/acceptance/
Before version 68.0, the logic implemented to identify INSTRUMENTED
tests would require either the "🥑 enable" or "🥑
recursive" statement as a flag for tests that would not inherit
directly from "avocado.Test". This is not necessary anymore,
and because of that the boiler plate statements can now be removed.

QEMU used to exits with a not accurate error message when
an initrd > 2GiB was passed. That was fixed on patch:
commit f3839fda57
Author: Li Zhijian <lizhijian@cn.fujitsu.com>
Date: Thu Sep 13 18:07:13 2018 +0800
change get_image_size return type to int64_t
This change adds a regression test for that fix. It starts
QEMU with a 2GiB dummy initrd, and checks that it evaluates the
file size correctly and prints an accurate message.
