While global_qtest and its wrapper functions work fine for tests that only
run one instance of QEMU, using the global_qtest variable in our qtests is
very problematic for tests that use multiple test states (e.g. migration
tests). Thus tests that still use global_qtest make it hard to share code
(either by copy-n-pasting or by calling common functions) with tests that
try to track multiple test states, so we should try to completely get rid
of the global_qtest variable and its wrapper function in the long run.

Here's another set of patches that cleans up the usage of global_qtest
in a couple of tests.

Thomas Huth (5):
  tests/tco: Make test independent of global_qtest
  tests/megasas: Make test independent of global_qtest
  tests/qmp-cmd-test: Use qtest_init() instead of qtest_start()
  tests/test-hmp: Use qtest_init() instead of qtest_start()
  tests/ide-test: Make test independent of global_qtest
