tests: Delete build directory before running KVM in nightly
The nightly tests failed here:
https://jenkins.gem5.org/job/nightly/430/. What seems to have happened
is the ALL/gem5.opt us compiled within the Docker container but then,
for the KVM tests, there is an attempt to recompile on the host, which
causes compilation problems. The safest strategy here is delete the
build directory prior to running the KVM tests.
In latest versions of our test infrastructure, the KVM tests should be
run completely separately (i.e., in different Jenkin's jobs) to avoid
this.
