    tests/vm: add 1GB extra memory per core · eaf46a65

    If you try to run a 16 or 32 threaded test, you're going to run out of
    memory very quickly with qom-test and a few others. Bump the memory
    limit to try to scale with larger-core machines.
    
    Granted, this means that a 16 core processor is going to ask for 16GB,
    but you *probably* meet that requirement if you have such a machine.
    
    512MB per core didn't seem to be enough to avoid ENOMEM and SIGABRTs in
    the test cases in practice on a six core machine; so I bumped it up to
    1GB which seemed to help.
    
    Add this magic in early to the configuration process so that the
    config file, if provided, can still override it.
