[OE-core] [PATCH v4 0/5] wic: selftest: enhancements for non-x86 MACHINE support & fixed-size tests

[Maciej Borzecki]

v4 of a series with enhancements and new test cases for wic selftest.
The enhancements allow for running wic selftest for non-x86 MACHINE,
such as qemuarm (the whole series was verified on qemux86-64 and
qemuarm).

The first patch adds a machine independent kickstart file - wictestdisk.
Most of test cases build a disk image using one of the kickstart files
shipped in Poky (mostly directdisk. These are usually x86 oriented due
to use of syslinux and cannot be used when running with non-x86
compatible MACHINE. On the other hand, the image built during tests does
not need to be bootable (with exception of TCs that verify if the image
is indeed bootable).

Patch 2 introduces wictestdisk in test cases where its use is possible.

Patch 3 adds only_for_arch() convenience decorator and applies it to test
cases where x86 specific image must be used. In the end, only 13 TCs are
skipped on qemuarm.

Changes from previous version:
- renamed onlyForArch() to only_for_arch(), changed input arguments to
  take image name and list of compatible architectures
- pylint fixes

Patch 4 removes some assumptions about kernel image type.

Patch 5 adds tests for --fixed-size partition flags.

Changes from previous version:
- pylint fixes
