step logfiles: Make substep_* take $logfile, not $script
The $script parameter was used by Standalone to print a message, but
this is no longer done.
It is used by Executive as the value for the "step" column in the
steps table, which shows up as "script" in the output from
sg-report-flight. But, when running under sg-run-job,
JobDB::Executive already has a better source of the script name: the
parent step (as reported in OSSTEST_TESTID). When not running under
sg-run-job the use of $0 is good enough.
Finally, it is used by Executive as a logfile name. But when running
under sg-run-job, JobDB::Executive gets the right logfile name anyway
(as above); and when not running under sg-run-job there is no default
logfile.
Conversely, substeps might organise their own logfile.
So abolish $script from the TestSupport substep API. Replace it in
substep_start and substep_eval with a $logfile parameter.

host examination: bootloader: Do not use ed
These ed runes are what I used to develop this approach, but they are
rather opaque to those very few programmers who are not proficient
users of ed, the standard text editor.
Also, using target_editfile_root means we keep a record of the
bootloader config in the logs, which is desirable.
The regexps used to edit the grub2 confiug are slightly more
sophisticated than the ed ones were.

host examination: serial, grub2: put cookie in menu lines
Empirically, the message printed by `echo' is not always shown. It
seems to depend on the host BIOS. I suspect that there's a
VGA-to-serial conversion step which only triggers when grub asks for
keyboard input, or something. In any case, empirically, increasing
the sleep (and sleeping before) did not work on the godellos.
Instead, stuff the cookie into the start of grub menu entries.
This is gross but effective.
We put it in the first menu, and the first submenu, which means it
will appear on the screen somewhere.

host examination: Run a regular exam flight
Examine every host, once a month.
This flight contains these jobs:
build-amd64 build-amd64-pvops
build-arm64 build-arm64-pvops
build-armhf build-armhf-pvops
build-i386 build-i386-pvops
examine-*
The build jobs are very similar to normal build jobs and I won't
recount their contents here. In any case, normally they will be
replaced with build jobs from a recent xen-unstable or osstest flight.
The examine-SOMEHOST job looks like this:
all_host_di_version current
all_host_suite jessie
arch {amd64,i386,arm64,armhf}
buildjob build-{amd64,i386,arm64,armhf}
enable_xsm false
host SOMEHOST
hostalloc_maxwait_max 20000
kernbuildjob build-{amd64,i386,arm64,armhf}-pvops
kernkind pvops
toolstack xl
xenbuildjob build-{amd64,i386,arm64,armhf}
The above is from standalone-generate-dump-flight-runvars so contains
dummy data. The suite, architectures, host and recipe will vary
depending on the output from cs-list-hosts.

host examination: Add a check to many flights
Check that nothing in the principal other branches is likely to
regress the host examination machinery. This is particularly relevant
for osstest itself, of course.
Runvars look like this (e.g., from test-amd64-amd64-examine):

make-hosts-flight: Impose a timeout
If we cannot acquire a particular host for more than 20ks (~5.5h),
give up on it. This allows flights to complete if hosts are blocked
for a long time.

host examination: Permanently save the logs
After this, we retain some of the logs from the last examination of
each host, in a directory in results/ named after the host.
The logic for computing the destination directory has similar env var
logic to that used in the invocation of sg-report-host-history but if
those are not set (as they usually won't be) has config-based
fallback.
In Standalone mode enough of these variables must be set to avoid
calling blessing_suffix, since we don't want the filename to depend on
a not-really-very-useful (and not implemented by intended_blessing)
Standalone flight's intended blessing.

TestSupport, Executive: Provide intended_blessing
This will be used by a ts script which permanently saves some logs in
a host-specific rather than flight-specific directory. Non-real
flights ought not to mess up real data.
The function is not provided for Standalone mode, so a test step that
tries to use it will fail.
