qemu: add wrapper for qemu-mips binary

qemu-mips user emulation binary segfaults when running any kind of
binary. This is due to a MMU access fault in the virtual CPU. This
problem has been introduced in qemu when 4GB of vmem were reserved for
32-on-64 bit.

This workaround will need to be reverted once the proper fix is found.

# The following fragment will create a wrapper for qemu-mips user emulation

# This will trigger a MMU access fault in the virtual CPU. With this change,
# the qemu-mips works fine.
# IMPORTANT: This piece needs to be removed once the root cause is fixed!
