Add libguestfs-test-tool.
This is an end-user testing tool, designed to test basic functionality of libguestfs/qemu/kernel combination on the end-user's final host machine. It does not perform a thorough test, but should be enough to find most booting issues. Also this is intended to be used when reporting bugs.

+This is a test tool, not a comprehensive test, but a "does it
+basically function" test, which can be packaged and given to end
+users.
+
+It also collects and prints a lot of internal debug information, which
+is useful in bug reports to track down appliance / qemu boot problems.
+
+For more information, please read the man page
