    The switcheroo test runner is used to switch CPUs in a system that
    has been prepared for CPU switching. Such systems should have
    multiple CPUs when they are instantiated, but only one should be
    switched in. Such configurations can be created using the
    base_config.BaseFSSwitcheroo class.

    A CPU switcher object is used to control switching. The default
    switcher sequentially switches between all CPUs in a system,
    starting with the CPU that is currently switched in.

    Unlike most other test runners, this one automatically configures
    the memory mode of the system based on the first CPU the switcher
    reports.

    Keyword Arguments:
      switcher -- CPU switcher implementation. See Sequential for
                  an example implementation.
      period -- Switching frequency in Hz.
      verbose -- Enable output at each switch (suppressed by default).
