tests/boot-serial-test: Add code to allow to specify our own kernel or bios

QEMU only ships with some few firmware images, i.e. we can currently run
the boot-serial test only on a very limited set of machines. But writing
some characters to the default UART of a machine can often be done with
some few lines of assembly, so we add the possibility to the boot-serial
tester to use its own mini-kernels or mini-firmwares. We write such images
then into a file that we can load with the "-kernel" or "-bios" parameter
when we launch QEMU.
