Everyone uses their own qemu based solution, it just so happens that I was
also not satisfied with what I saw and wrote my own solution, kvm-boot [0].

I'm sure others use other things too.

But... a qemu-less solution for a lot of tests would be great as well,
and for this I believe kunit [1] seems to be like a great possibility worth
exploring in the future.
