Removing the build directory (with rm -fr) can take a significant amount
of time, longer than the standard buildbot timeout, which delays the
builds. Instead, we use the clobberdir script from the helper repository.
This script moves the directory contents out of the way to a location which
is reaped by a background process.
Unfortunately this assumes/requires a copy of the repository is kept in the
home directory of the user running buildbot.

Ensure triggered builds have all of the branch_, commit_ and repo_
properties set. Most builders won't use them, but it's simpler to set them
all for all triggered builds than to special case specific builders.

A missing comma resulted in the nightly-ppc-lsb and nightly-x86-64 builders
being merged into one.

run-config can run without producing output for longer than the default
1200s/20m timeout value. Increase the timeout to a generous 16200s/4.5h
in order to give the script plenty of time to run.

Initial prototype of using yocto-autobuilder-helper scripts from vanilla
buildbot to replicate yocto-autobuilder configuration.
* README.md is updated to describe goals and approach
* TODO contains known issues and work items, TODO: comments in the code
point to specific locations of work
