[v10,1/3] Acceptance tests: introduce BUILD_DIR and SOURCE_DIR

Commit Message

Cleber Rosa March 17, 2020, 2:16 p.m. UTC

Some tests may benefit from using resources from a build directory.
This introduces three variables that can help tests find resources in
those directories.

First, a BUILD_DIR is assumed to exist, given that the primary form of
running the acceptance tests is from a build directory (which may or
may not be the same as the source tree, that is, the SOURCE_DIR).

If the directory containing the acceptance tests happens to be a link
to a directory, it's assumed to it points to the source tree
(SOURCE_DIR), which is the behavior defined on the QEMU Makefiles.  If
the directory containing the acceptance tests is not a link, then a
in-tree build is assumed, and the BUILD_DIR and SOURCE_DIR have the
same value.
