It seems there no. I tried to reach DSA, Salsa admins and admins of
ci.debian.org, and got nothing.
So best I have is following patch, that wrap all these complicated qemu
option behind `make -f debian/autopkgtest`. It is still to be run
manually on someone's laptop.
Any better ideas?

Subject: [PATCH] Add manual rule to run autopkgtest
Currently, Debian does not provide infrastructure to run autopkgtests with
{isolation-machine} restriction. Additionally, {switch-init} autopkgtest
requires significant entropy level in virtual machine, so virtual machine must
be started with very specific options.
This change adds new rules into {debian/rules}, intended to be run
manually. These rules create virtual machine image and run autopkgtests with
required virtual image options.
Closes: #931658
