It wants to build and run a big guest binary blob -- that to me is
the main difference. Users don't much care about any of our tests,
whether they're under 'make check' or 'make check-avocado' or the
iotests framework. The reason to pick one framework or another
is mostly I think whether the properties of the test are such
that one framework works better. Avocado is (for better or worse)
the one we have for dealing with "actually run a guest machine
with a big lump of guest code in it".
