This patch greatly simplifies the code in qemurunner.py that tries to determine the PID of the running qemu (started by qemurunner->runqemu->...->qemu-system-xxx)). The original code needed to search and analyze all processes to determine which "qemu-system-xxx" was a direct descendant of qemurunner.py. As it turns out, qemu can readily report its own PID, if asked via the argument "-pidfile file". The new code passes this argument and then simply loops waiting for "file" to appear (with a timeout value as before). Once this happens, it reads the contents of the file and reports the value (PID). The file containing the qemu PIDis deleted after qemurunner terminates.
