[PATCH v2 3/5] python/machine: raise VMLaunchFailure exception from launch()

[John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com>]

This allows us to pack in some extra information about the failure,
which guarantees that if the caller did not *intentionally* cause a
failure (by capturing this Exception), some pretty good clues will be
printed at the bottom of the traceback information.

This will help make failures in the event of a non-negative return code
more obvious when they go unhandled; the current behavior is to print a
warning message only in the event of signal-based terminations (for
negative return codes).
