[10/15] tests/avocado: Remove the boot_linux.py tests

Commit Message

From: Thomas Huth <[e-mail]>

These tests are based on the cloudinit functions from Avocado.
The cloudinit is very, very slow compared to our other tests,
so most of these Avocado tests have either been disabled by default
with a decorator, or have been marked to only run with KVM.

We won't include this sluggish cloudinit stuff in the functional
framework, and we've already got plenty of other tests there that
check pretty much the same things, so let's simply get rid of these
old tests now.
