In the case that the QEMU process actually launches -- but then dies so quickly that we can't establish a QMP connection to it -- QEMUMachine currently calls _post_shutdown() assuming that it never launched the VM process. This isn't true, though: it "merely" may have failed to establish a QMP connection and the process is in the middle of its own exit path. If we don't wait for the subprocess, the caller may get a bogus `None` return for .exitcode(). This behavior was observed from device-crash-test; after the switch to Async QMP, the timings were changed such that it was now seemingly possible to witness the failure of "vm.launch()" *prior* to the exitcode becoming available. The semantic of the `_launched` property is changed in this patch. Instead of representing the condition "launch() executed successfully", it will now represent "has forked a child process successfully". This way, wait() when called in the exit path won't become a no-op.

qemu.machine package ==================== This package provides core utilities used for testing and debugging QEMU. It is used by the iotests, vm tests, avocado tests, and several other utilities in the ./scripts directory. It is not a fully-fledged SDK and it is subject to change at any time. See the documentation in ``__init__.py`` for more information.
