Research direction

Reproduce the reported commands, starting with cargo test --quiet, and trace how bootimage handles arguments before invoking QEMU. Done means cargo test --quiet no longer passes --quiet as an invalid QEMU option while cargo run --quiet continues to work.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

cargo run --quiet works fine, but when I try to run cargo test --quiet, qemu gives the error qemu-system-x86_64: --quiet: invalid option
