Ptests are only run as root.

Rather than patching the code with a patch which we can never upstream,
can we run the ptest under a non-root user?
We considered that but when I looked for an example of oe-core doing
that but didn't see one. Did I miss it/them?
I suppose the /usr/lib/bash/ptest/run-ptest script could:
- create a user: say 'bashptest'
- run the tests
- delete the user.
Of course we'd need to add dependencies for the user mgmt tools.
Is that what you were thinking?
