From: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4...@amsat.org>

Currently to run Avocado acceptance tests in an out-of-tree
build directory, we need to use the full path to the test:

  build_dir$ avocado run 
/full/path/to/sources/qemu/tests/acceptance/boot_linux_console.py

This patch adds a symlink in the build tree to simplify the
tests invocation, allowing the same command than in in-tree builds:

  build_dir$ avocado run tests/acceptance/boot_linux_console.py
