[PATCH v2] tests/functional/aarch64: Drop some sbsaref_alpine tests

[Thomas Huth]

From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>

test_sbsaref_alpine is one of the longest running test in our testsuite,
because it does a full Linux boot a couple of times, for various different
CPU configurations. That's quite a lot of testing each time, for a rather
small additional test coverage. Thus let's drop some of the tests that don't
provide much in addition to the other ones.

 v2: Drop the tests instead of just not running them by default
