Given that the setUp() phase is not useful for test_disk_space, and the
custom cleanup done in the test is better had at the tearDown() phase.

Additionally, the following changes where made to make it more reliable:

 * Avoid the busy loop giving modprobe some time between attempts
 * Use "modprobe -r" instead of rmmod, which handlers module dependencies
 * Do an explicit check for status
 * If "modprobe -r" doesn't succeed, it's not a test failure, but a test
   a test error (given that the get_diskspace() function already ran
   and succeeded).

Ideally, the module removal would be done by the linux_modules.unload_module()
but there are some issues with that function that needs addressing first
(such as returning a meaningful result).

The newly released pylint version 2.2.0, changed its default behavior
(enabled) the following checks:

 * :unnecessary-pass (W0107): *Unnecessary pass statement*
   Used when a "pass" statement that can be avoided is encountered.

 * :unused-import (W0611): *Unused %s*
   Used when an imported module or variable is not used.

Let's apply fixes to those checks, and at the same time, pin the
pylint versions so that our CI environment is more stable (code that
test our code -- pylint -- doesn't change, while our code changes).

For Python 2, the latest release was 1.9.3, so let's use that.

Currently, the only way to pass parameters to Avocado is by using the
variants layer, that is, one of the existing varianter plugin
implementations.  This was based on earlier design decisions, that
we're trying to fix without breaking expectation and compatibility.

While it'd makes sense to support parameters created by the varianter
layer itself, together with non-varianter parameters, it seems that we
can start by adding support for one or the other being used at a time.

This commit does exactly that: add support for a method of passing
parameters via the command line for all tests in a job, without
having to resort to the varianter.  When the varianter is used,
it takes precedence and the core test parameter passing support
is ignored.

This should solve a number of use cases that require one-time
executions of tests with different parameters, especially
executions during test development and debugging.

I was trying to use the external runner, in a reasonably simple way:
from within a project (QEMU) build dir, I'd run:

 $ avocado run --external-runner=tests/qemu-iotests/check \
   --external-runner-chdir=runner -- 001 002

But, what should work, did not.  The problem is with the non-absolute
path to the external runner, that is needed because we're changing
directories.

Absolute paths won't hurt otherwise (when no chdir is done), so it's
always done here.

`examples/tests/simplewarning.sh` calls a generic avocado command,
which gets added to the path by the test code. That generic avocado
command is `scripts/avocado`, from the source repository, which

Under some environments, such as Fedora >= 29, there may be no
unversioned Python binary.  Let's respect the UNITTEST_AVOCADO_CMD

When a plugin is not installed, its command line options are not
registered with the optparse based code.  That is caught earlier than
Avocado's own handling of incompatible options (in this case, the replay
and the remote runner), and results in the errors such as:

not available, and this test should be skipped.
