It already works like this. In the build.sh script:

    # Extract Qemu command from readme.txt
    test_qemu_cmd=$(grep qemu-system ${buildroot_dir}/board/qemu/${test_board_dir}/readme.txt)

and then further tweaks to build the Qemu command line.

Yes, we could use host-qemu if needed.

I'm not sure it matters a lot: just test if network support is working,
ping or ssh is enough. I believe in the cases where network was not
working, it was simply not working at all.

Best regards,
