Joshua Lock 7fabb26b63 builders: use yocto-autobuilder-helper's clobberdir script
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.

Initial release

  • TODO & FIXME items, esp in builders.py i.e finishing up nightly builder config
  • formatting/labels of the yocto-autobuilder-helper inputs

Future

  • add mail notification functionality to yocto-autobuilder-helper, it already knows how to iterate error reports.
  • Make use of janitor script from yocto-autobuilder-helper
  • Simple script to start buildbot controller, janitor and PRServer
  • Review ForceScheduler inputs and whether they are used by the helper scripts, particularly the poky_number parameter of nightly is possibly no longer required
  • Teach the janitor to pre-clone the repos
  • add SendQAMail
  • Look into allowed_origins property of built in web server
  • add buildhistory trigger
  • switch wikilog to buildbot.util.service.HTTPClient?
