It has not been a dependency since at least 4.13. Remove its mandatory check
from ./configure.
Annotate the dependency in the CI dockerfiles, and drop them from CirrusCI and
TravisCI.

Currently we are using Debian's qemu-system-aarch64 for our tests.
However, sometimes it crashes. It is hard to debug and even harder to
apply any fixes to it.
Instead, build our own QEMU as one of our test-artifacts, which are only
built once, then imported into each pipeline via phony jobs.

Some tests (soon to come) will require pre-built binaries to run, such
as the Linux kernel binary. We don't want to rebuild the Linux kernel
for each gitlab-ci run: these builds should not be added to the current
list of build jobs.
Instead, create additional containers that today are built and uploaded
manually, but could be re-built automatically. The containers build the
required binarires during the "docker build" step and store them inside
the container itself.
gitlab-ci will be able to fetch these pre-built binaries during the
regular test runs, saving cycles.
Add two tests artifacts containers:
- one to build the Linux kernel ARM64
- one to create an Alpine Linux ARM64 rootfs for Dom0
