Julien Olivain d46b2f5fea support/testing/infra/emulator.py: add host load info in run log
Runtime tests running on test runners are subject to a high
variability in term of performance and timing. Most or the runtime
test commands are executed with a timeout, in pexpect.

Slow or very loaded test runners can use the timeout_multiplier to
globally increase those timeouts.

Some runtime test commands sometimes needs to poll or query a state,
rather than having purely sequential actions. It is sometimes hard to
know, from the test writer point of view, the maximum timeout to set, or
if a retry logic is needed.

In order to help debugging runtime tests failing due very slow
execution, this commit adds extra information on the host test runner
about its load in the run log. Relevant information are: number of
cpus, the load average at the moment the emulator is started and the
current timeout_multiplier.

Note: this change was discussed in:
