/// ## Example Usage
///
/// ```rust
/// use runs_inside_qemu::runs_inside_qemu;
///
/// fn main() {
///     // If we are in QEMU, we use the nice "debugcon"-feature which maps
///     // the x86 I/O-port `0xe9` to stdout or a file.
///     if runs_inside_qemu() {
///         unsafe {
///             x86::io::outb(0xe9, b'H');
///             x86::io::outb(0xe9, b'e');
///             x86::io::outb(0xe9, b'l');
///             x86::io::outb(0xe9, b'l');
