I didn't really look closely. I recently setup docker / docker-compose at
$WORK, so I based the linux config on that.

I can have a look at basing it on the qemu config, but that means that
we have to be a bit careful when bumping the qemu config, so I'm not
sure if it makes sense.

Indeed. We have a number of more-or-less random files under conf/, and
then E.G. tests/package/test_python_*.py stores files for the target
also under tests/package/sample_*.py

I can move the files under tests/package if you prefer, but I'm not sure
if that is really cleaner.
