Instead of failing the tests, we should rather skip them if ncat is

While we're at it, also mention ncat in the README.md file as a

I would rather remove the migration tests. There's really no reason for
them, the KVM selftests in the Linux tree are much better: they can find
migration bugs deterministically and they are really really easy to debug.
The only disadvantage is that they are harder to write.
I disagree: We're testing migration with QEMU here - the KVM selftests don't
include QEMU, so we'd lose some test coverage here.
And at least the powerpc/sprs.c test helped to find some nasty bugs in the
past already.
