Ah! Canadian cross... (*strokes moustache*).

Running QEMU, ssh etc. for lit tests is doable (I've done it before
numerous times), but when I did it, I always wanted to, so the
commands were hard-coded into the tests.

I'm guessing that's what your %host_run and %target_run will do
dynamically. It may be complicated, but doable.
