Description

Basically if I add an entry to kola-denylist.yaml that looks like:

- pattern: podman.base                                                                                                            
  tracker: https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/966                                                                        
  snooze: 2021-10-15                                                                                                                         
  platforms:                                                                                                                                 
    - aws                                                                                                                                    
    - gcp                                                                                                                                    
    - qemu

It would be nice if it worked against qemu. Right now you have to use qemu-unpriv.

Research direction

Start with kola-denylist.yaml and reproduce the existing qemu-unpriv behavior, then trace the denylist processing path that handles platform names. Done means an entry listing qemu applies to qemu runs without requiring qemu-unpriv; run the relevant tests if the repository provides them.
