tests: replace keystone with llvm-mc firmware build pipeline

[Jerome Haxhiaj (jeromehaxhiaj-qti)]

Summary

Retire the keystone runtime assembler from Qbox CPU tests and replace it
with a configure-time firmware build pipeline based on the LLVM toolchain
(llvm-mc + ld.lld + llvm-objcopy).

• Each test now ships a paired .S (and optional .ld) file that is
  assembled, linked, and objcopied to a raw .bin at CMake configure
  time. The test loads the .bin at runtime via the new
  CpuTestBenchBase::load_firmware_binary() helper, which patches a
  trailing window of .quad / .word placeholders for runtime
  constants like MMIO_ADDR and NUM_WRITES.
• Removes the keystone CPM fetch and the patches under patch/keystone/.
  LLVM tools are now a hard build requirement on all platforms; the
  install-dependencies script is updated to cover them.
• Introduces three CMake helpers in tests/qbox/CMakeLists.txt
  (qbox_build_firmware_bin, qbox_attach_firmware, qbox_add_cpu_test)
  plus per-arch wrappers qbox_add_cpu_<arch>_test so each test reads
  as a single line at the call site.

What's in this PR

scripts: install llvm/lld for the firmware build pipeline (67abcce)

Adds llvm and lld to install_dependencies.sh's package lists for
Ubuntu (apt), macOS (brew), and MSYS2 (pacboy). On macOS Homebrew
ships ld.lld in the separate lld formula, so both formulae are
required.

tests: replace keystone with llvm-mc firmware build pipeline (54cf583)

The bulk of the change. Highlights:

New CMake helpers (in tests/qbox/CMakeLists.txt):

• qbox_build_firmware_bin(<name> <arch> <src_dir> [EXTRA_LD_ARGS ...]) —
  assembles <src_dir>/<name>.S, links with ld.lld using
  <src_dir>/<name>.ld (or per-directory firmware.ld fallback),
  objcopies to a raw .bin via a <name>-firmware custom target.
• qbox_attach_firmware(<target> <fw_name>) — wires the build dependency
  and defines FIRMWARE_BIN_PATH for the test executable.
• qbox_add_cpu_test(<target> <timeout_s> <sources>... [ARCH <arch>] [FIRMWARE <name>] [FIRMWARE_SRC_DIR <dir>] [EXTRA_LD_ARGS ...]) —
  collapses the build + attach + add_test boilerplate into one call.
  By default the firmware base name is the stem (NAME_WE) of the first
  source file; FIRMWARE overrides it.
• qbox_add_cpu_<arch>_test(<target> <timeout_s> <source>.cc) — per-arch
  thin wrappers in cpu/<arch>/CMakeLists.txt pinning ARCH=<arch>.
  This is what call sites use, so each test is one line.

Portability:

• On MSYS2/Windows, ld.lld defaults to the lld-link/PE-COFF driver
  and silently ignores -flavor gnu, leaving GNU-style options like
  -T unrecognised. Pass the correct ELF emulation per arch
  (aarch64elf / hexagonelf / elf32lriscv / elf64lriscv) via
  -m on WIN32; older Linux LLDs (e.g. Ubuntu's stock llvm-18)
  don't know every emulation name, so leave -m off elsewhere.
• hexagon-smmu-stress-test-v2.s uses Hexagon V73 ops (tlbw,
  dmwait, dmlink) that older LLVM Hexagon backends don't recognise.
  macOS via Homebrew's llvm and MSYS2/Windows both ship a recent
  enough backend; the firmware (and its test) are gated behind
  APPLE OR WIN32 (QQVPQSP-714).
• tests/CMakeLists.txt gates each tests/qbox/cpu/<arch>/
  subdirectory on the corresponding arch being present in
  LIBQEMU_TARGETS.

Naming convention applied uniformly across cpu-test sources:

• Filenames use dashes only (no underscores); the hexagon dir uses
  hexagon- consistently rather than the previous hex- shortening.
• Each test owns its firmware: aarch64 reset-test was previously
  shared by reset-test-system and reset-test-cpu; the .S is now
  duplicated so each test has its own. hexagon-smmu-firmware was
  renamed to hexagon-smmu-stress-test-v2 to match its driver.
• After these renames every qbox_add_cpu_<arch>_test call has
  firmware == source-stem, so qbox_add_cpu_test derives the
  firmware base from the first source's NAME_WE and call sites just
  read (target, timeout, source).

Coverage: all aarch64, hexagon, and riscv32 CPU tests previously
using set_firmware() (including the multi-block
smmu-router-stress-test-v2 layout via .org), and the standalone
hexagon-load-store-test harness.

tests: extend SKIP_TESTS for known-flaky and slow cpu-test configs (7778beb)

Two SKIP_TESTS entries surfaced by CI on this branch (both pre-existing
issues, unrelated to the keystone migration):

• aarch64-dmi-test-reset:num-cpu=(4|32):threading=SINGLE segfaults
  intermittently on Ubuntu (across the
  ubuntu-{22,24}.04 × {gcc,gcc-debug,clang,clang-debug,clang-lto}
  matrix, num-cpu=4 and num-cpu=32 each fail in roughly half of
  runs while num-cpu=1 and num-cpu=2 always pass). Marked flaky.
• hexagon-smmu-stress-test-v2 already skipped num-cpu>1 for
  COROUTINE and SINGLE as "takes too long". Extends the same skip
  to MULTI so num-cpu>1 is uniformly skipped — macOS hit a 100s
  ctest timeout on multithread-quantum:num-cpu=4:MULTI while the
  same policy at num-cpu=1 finishes in well under a second.

Test plan

• cmake --build build --target test passes on macOS (apart from
  the hexagon-smmu-stress-test-v2:multithread-quantum:num-cpu=4
  timeout, now skipped) — verified locally
• Windows CI: green
• Ubuntu CI: green after the SKIP_TESTS extension (the
  aarch64-dmi-test-reset SEGFAULTs are pre-existing, now skipped)
• macOS CI: green after the SKIP_TESTS extension
• All renamed firmware sources (<arch>-<name>.{cc,S,ld}) round-trip
  via qbox_build_firmware_bin and load at runtime — verified by
  end-to-end runs of aarch64-simple-write-test,
  aarch64-reset-test-system, aarch64-reset-test-cpu,
  hexagon-ld-st-mmio-test, riscv32-reset-test,
  hexagon-smmu-stress-test-v2 (all pass)
• The if(NOT TARGET ...) guard inside qbox_add_cpu_test means
  shared firmware (when used) is built once — no longer needed
  after this PR (every test owns its firmware) but the guard
  stays for safety
• The standalone hexagon-load-store-test (which doesn't go
  through qbox_add_cpu_test) still builds and runs

Migration notes for downstream

If you depend on the now-removed set_firmware() runtime API or on the
keystone library itself, you'll need to migrate to the
qbox_add_cpu_<arch>_test helpers (see tests/qbox/cpu/*/CMakeLists.txt
for examples). The C++-side load_firmware_binary() helper expects a
firmware that ends with .quad (aarch64) or .word
(riscv32/hexagon) placeholders patched by initializer-list values at
the tail of the binary; see tests/qbox/include/test/cpu.h.

I like this idea, we've been wanting to do it for a while. Time to retire keystone (much as it's been helpful, overall, it's also been painful).

Would appreciate Brian Cain (@androm3da) feedback
