I have a few cheap (Xeon-D) KVM servers lying around that I wouldn’t mind 
putting into a CI/CD pipeline for testing x86 (and x86_64) builds, but don’t 
have the time.

If someone else wanted to do the integration I would host it (hint, hint).

So potentially, Qemu integration is still useful.  That said, though, I’d 
probably test .img’s and not .vmdk files…
