Devise a means for easily testing on real hardware #21

Right now for the pc_x86_64 platform I'm using an MSI B85M board and I'm flashing a usb stick for each test, we need something more automated. It should eventually support testing from the cloud (CircleCi) but in the short term maybe PXE booting could be used.

Eventually we'll probably need a testing server which controls other test devices. The test server will probably need to be connected to a test devices reset and power switches so as tests can be totally controlled something like this. The most common option are boxes that are remote power switches, here is a google search.
