Add "make venv" to create the pipenv-managed virtual environment that

Add "make check" to run the python linters [in the host execution
environment].

Add "make venv-check" which combines the above two: create/update the
venv, then run the linters in that explicitly managed environment.

Add "make develop" which canonizes the runes needed to get both the
linting pre-requisites (the "[devel]" part), and the editable
live-install (the "-e" part) of these python libraries.

make clean: delete miscellaneous python packaging output possibly
created by pipenv, pip, or other python packaging utilities

make distclean: delete the above, the .venv, and the editable "qemu"
package forwarder (qemu.egg-info) if there is one.

Let's observe how this will be used (or misused).  I fear most people
will jump into `make check`, even though you have described `make
venv-check` as the primary choice.

We have a precedent with `make check-acceptance` that will create a
venv and use it by default, so we can consider that as a fallback
strategy based on user feedback.


Right, I see. Though, I did intentionally want to make it clear which of these invocations created an environment and which did not.

Unlike the acceptance tests, it might make sense to run these tests both inside and outside of that venv, so I opted to make the default "make" target "make help".

The Gitlab CI will run the right one, after all -- and I do still expect the regular 'make check' to pass, so I am not as sure that it's a crucial failure if someone runs the "wrong one".

Usually `python3 setup.py clean --all` would be the better choice here,
but, it doesn't clean `dist/`, so I'm OK with this.


Hm, I should probably move the 'dist' down into 'distclean' anyway, and I will replace the clean invocation with the one you suggest.

+distclean: clean
