Currently isolation and resource requirements are handled directly
by the kyua runner, based on the requirements specified by the test.
It works well for simple tests, but may cause discrepancy with tests
doing complex pre-setups. For example, all tests that perform
VNET setups require root access to properly function.
This change adds additional handling of the "require_user" property
within the python testing framework. Specifically, it requests
root access if the test class signals its root requirements and
drops privileges to the desired user after performing the pre-setup.

* Derive jail name from class name and method name, instead of just
method name. This change reduces the chances of different tests
clashing.
Old: 'jail_test_one'. New: 'pytest:TestExampleSimplest:test_one'
* Simplify vnetX_handler() method signature by skipping obj_map (unused)
and pipe. The latter can be accessed as the vnet property.
* Add `send_object()` method as a pair to the `wait_object` inside the
VnetTestTemplate class.
* Add `test_id` property to the BaseTest method. Previously it was
provided only for the VnetTestTemplate class. This change makes
the identifier easily accessible for all users.
