Konrad Weihmann 81c46e46a8 runqemu: add QB_ROOTFS_EXTRA_OPT parameter
Content of the optional parameter will be appended to the rootfs-device
in the qemu configuration, in case QB_ROOTFS_OPT is not specified.
By default this is empty.

Example use cases are:

Defining 'readonly' when using squashfs, so multiple instances of qemu
can share the same base image, something that cannot be done by just
specifying 'snapshot'.

Defining 'bootindex=0' which helps to get past the EFI shell in
ovmf-binary. This also enables the use case of running WIC images with
EFI bootloader through the testimage.bbclass.

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
