5d25fcb702 gitlab: add optional job to run flaky avocado tests
One problem with flaky tests is they often only fail under CI
conditions which makes it hard to debug. We add an optional allow_fail
job so developers can trigger the only the flaky tests in the CI
environment if they are debugging.

9b45cc9931 docs/devel: rationalise unstable gitlab tests under FLAKY_TESTS
It doesn't make sense to have two classes of flaky tests. While it may
take the constrained environment of CI to trigger failures easily it
doesn't mean they don't occasionally happen on developer machines. As
CI is the gating factor to passing there is no point developers
running the tests locally anyway unless they are trying to fix things.

While we are at it update the language in the docs to discourage the
QEMU_TEST_FLAKY_TESTS becoming a permanent solution.

cd43f00524 tests/avocado: reverse_debugging drain console to prevent hang
Like replay_linux.py, reverse_debugging.py starts the vm with console
set but does not interact with it (e.g., with wait_for_console_pattern).
In this situation, the console should have a drainer attached so the
socket does not fill. replay_linux.py has a drainer, but it is missing
from reverse_debugging.py.

Per analysis in Link: this can cause the console socket/pipe to fill and
QEMU get stuck in qemu_chr_write_buffer, leading to strange test case
failures (ppc64 fails because it prints a lot to console in early bios).
Attaching a drainer prevents this.

Note, this commit does not fix bugs introduced by the commits referenced
in the first two Fixes: tags, but together those commits conspire to
irritate the problem and cause test case failure, which this commit
fixes.

76e9c1dfb9 tests/avocado: reverse-debugging cope with re-executing breakpoints
The reverse-debugging test creates a trace, then replays it and:

1. Steps the first 10 instructions and records their addresses.
2. Steps backward and verifies their addresses match.
3. Runs to (near) the end of the trace.
4. Sets breakpoints on the first 10 instructions.
5. Continues backward and verifies execution stops at the last
   breakpoint.

Step 5 breaks if any of the other 9 breakpoints are re-executed in the
trace after the 10th instruction is run, because those will be
unexpectedly hit when reverse continuing. This situation does arise
with the ppc pseries machine, the SLOF bios branches to its own entry
point.

Deal with this by switching steps 3 and 4, so the trace will be run to
the end *or* one of the breakpoints being re-executed. Step 5 then
reverses from there to the 10th instruction will not hit a breakpoint in
between, by definition.

Another step is added between steps 2 and 3, which steps forward over
the first 10 instructions and verifies their addresses, to support this.

bbbd9b6ec6 tests/acceptance: rename tests acceptance to tests avocado
In the discussion about renaming the `tests/acceptance` [1], the
conclusion was that the folders inside `tests` are related to the
framework running the tests and not directly related to the type of
the tests.

This changes the folder to `tests/avocado` and adjusts the MAKEFILE, the
CI related files and the documentation.
