KVM not enabled in qemu aarch64 ChromeOS binaries

[ericcurtin]

One of the advantages of using chromebrew vs the built in Debian environment is /dev/kvm is accessible. It's a pity kvm support isn't built in to the qemu binaries though.

$ qemu-system-aarch64 -accel help
Accelerators supported in QEMU binary:
tcg

This could have been worked around by installing podman and using say Fedora binaries as an example but podman install fails.

For the record, podman would probably be easier to get working over docker, for one you don't have to worry about starting daemons.

Feel free to submit a PR to reconfigure the qemu build to add kvm support...

building with --enable-kvm doesn't resolve this on armv7l. Please feel free to investigate further.
