Merge ~mreed8855/plainbox-provider-certification-server:uvt-virtualization into plainbox-provider-certification-server:master

[Michael Reed]

Currently the kvm test is failing due to a python traceback error. I propose replacing this test with the use of uvt to test kvm. The bug that this attempts to solve is https://bugs.launchpad.net/plainbox-provider-checkbox/+bug/1895168

This is related to the merge proposal for adding a test for kvm using the uvtool to checkbox.
