Description
I think bootimage has some problems with the custom test runner on CLion/Rust plugin.
CLion can create a Cargo run configuration for tests. This creates the following cargo command:
C:/Programming/Rust/cargo/bin/cargo.exe test --color=always --no-fail-fast -- -Z unstable-options --format=json --show-output
Unfortunately, the arguments after -- are passed to qemu as is
Running: `qemu-system-x86_64 -drive format=raw,file=C:\dev\Workspace\gerrix\target\x86_64-blog_os\debug\deps\bootimage-gerrix-d6bdb98945edd169.bin -no-reboot -device isa-debug-exit,iobase=0xf4,iosize=0x04 -Z unstable-options --format=json --show-output`
qemu-system-x86_64: -Z: invalid option
Running the test via cargo test works, though.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the CLion Cargo test command and compare it with the working cargo test invocation. Trace how arguments after -- are passed to QEMU by the custom test runner; done means CLion's generated test configuration no longer sends Cargo-only options such as -Z to QEMU.
