We currently never pass parameters to the avocado process via
Makefile. To start doing so we need to invert the precedence between
command line parameters and tags, otherwise a command line parameter
would override values for all the tests, which is unlikely to be a
common use-case.

A more likely use-case is to force certain values for the tests that
have no tags. For instance, if a test has no 'arch' tags and therefore
can run for all targets, one could possibly force it to run on a
certain target with an arch=foo parameter.

This applies to the variables set during setUp(): arch, machine, cpu,
distro_name, distro_version. Parameters used directly in tests or read
via self.params.get are left unchanged.
