[Qemu-devel] [RFC 18/24] avocado_qemu: Simplify the installation instructions

[Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com>]

From: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>

Let's just give a single command line that can be reliably executed to
install avocado and the dependencies we're aware for the existing
tests.

The installation approach chosen is the most universal one (pip) and
one that impacts the least the developer's system, being limited to
the user's home directory.
