I’m not entirely sure why (or I would’ve sent a patch myself), but this
breaks all iotests using the socket_scm_helper program unless one runs
make check-block before (or make tests/qemu-iotests/socket_scm_helper
specifically).

It seems like the socket_scm_helper is now only built as a dependency of
check-block, instead of all the time.  That’s a bit of a shame.
(The obvious workaround of course is to specifically build the
socket_scm_helper, but that doesn’t seem right.)

As a reproducer:

[delete build directory, or most importantly the socket_scm_helper]
[configure]
[make]
$ cd tests/qemu-iotests
$ ./check -nbd 147
[...]
+qemu.machine.QEMUMachineError: socket_scm_helper does not exist
[...]
