[PULL 18/23] tests/acceptance: Add set_vm_arg() to the Test class

[Cleber Rosa]

From: Wainer dos Santos Moschetta <wainersm@redhat.com>

The set_vm_arg method is added to avocado_qemu.Test class on this
change. Use that method to set (or replace) an argument to the list of
arguments given to the QEMU binary.
