On Fedora 31 with GCC 9.2.1, compiling qemuxml2argvtest takes
about 36 seconds since

    qemuxml2argvtest: Update host arch for DO_TEST*ARCH* tests

The optimizer is hitting some pathelogical performance behaviour due to
the high number of branches in the mymain() method.

Pushing the branch tests down into the testCompareXMLToArgv method
brings the compile time down to 3 seconds.
