Description
In #1151 I used basic qemu commands to test VM booting because there was some weird issue with bcvk on Github CI. We should move these tests to use bcvk.
Also, related for BIOS only testing is https://github.com/bootc-dev/bootc/pull/2314 as currently bootc unconditionally creates an ESP

Research direction
Start with the VM tests and basic QEMU commands introduced in issue #1151, then inspect the GitHub CI configuration and the existing bcvk failure context. Replace the VM test path with bcvk and run the affected CI tests; done means VM boot tests pass using bcvk, with BIOS-only coverage considered alongside bootc PR #2314.
