To do this, we start a qemu-nbd process at _make_test_img and kill
it in _cleanup_test_img. $TEST_IMG is changed to point at the TCP
server. We also remove the checks for existence of binaries from
common.config - they're duplicated in common, and we can make the
qemu-nbd check conditional on $IMGPROTO being "nbd" if we do it there.

=== This is the QEMU I/O test suite ===
* Intro
This package contains a simple test suite for the I/O layer of qemu.
It does not require a guest, but only the qemu, qemu-img and qemu-io
binaries. This does limit it to exercise the low-level I/O path only
but no actual block drivers like ide, scsi or virtio.
* Usage
Just run ./check to run all tests for the raw image format, or ./check
-qcow2 to test the qcow2 image format. The output of ./check -h explains
additional options to test further image formats or I/O methods.
* Feedback and patches
Please send improvements to the test suite, general feedback or just
reports of failing tests cases to qemu-devel@savannah.nongnu.org.
