Ah, yes, maybe I should've been more clear about it. I think this is more
intuitive for the new users who might not be very familiar with
run_tests.sh internals, and like you've said it won't break existing users
who had to set ACCEL=tcg to get the desired behaviour anyway.

Thanks you for queueing it so fast! Should probably have also mentioned
this as a comment in the commit, but I take full responsibility for
breaking stuff.
