python: add tox support

This is intended to be a manually run, non-CI script.

Use tox to test the linters against all python versions from 3.6 to
3.10. This will only work if you actually have those versions installed
locally, but Fedora makes this easy:

> sudo dnf install python3.6 python3.7 python3.8 python3.9 python3.10

Unlike the pipenv tests (make venv-check), this pulls "whichever"
versions of the python packages, so they are unpinned and may break as
time goes on. In the case that breakages are found, setup.cfg should be
amended accordingly to avoid the bad dependant versions, or the code
should be amended to work around the issue.

With confidence that the tests pass on 3.6 through 3.10 inclusive, add
the appropriate classifiers to setup.cfg to indicate which versions we
claim to support.

Tox 3.18.0 or above is required to use the 'allowlist_externals' option.

python: add Makefile for some common tasks

Add "make venv" to create the pipenv-managed virtual environment that
contains our explicitly pinned dependencies.

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.
