Subject to anticipated change to the runvar name.

Sometimes when updating osstest to use a newer version of Debian as a baseline we find that the new compiler or other tools pickup latent errors in older code bases for which the fixes are invasive or otherwise inappropriate for a stable branch. This is the case with Debian Jessie and Xen 4.3 and earlier, so restrict those branches to keep using Wheezy. This only applies to xen-X.Y-testing branches and qemu-upstream-X.Y-testing branches since other branch all use xen-unstable as their Xen.
