Merge lp:~stevanr/linaro-ci-dashboard/lava-install into lp:linaro-ci-dashboard

[Stevan Radaković]

Add lava install/start/stop custom command and update README.

[Stevan Radaković (stevanr)]

If you think we need to do some setup in lava post-install (add some users, or somehow import some tests) let's discuss it.

Clean up some legacy imports and comments.

Also we might do something like this http://lava.readthedocs.org/en/latest/qemu-deploy.html scripted-like, but maybe it's an overkill. This has to be done only once if the user doesn't uninstall his instance, so maybe I'll add it to README for now and we can discuss tomorrow about the rest.

It could be good to have one, because we will need to "play" with the token authorization in order to send jobs to LAVA. But it can be something to be done at a later stage.

Another thing that might be good to have is to import some "bundles", otherwise the LAVA install is totally empty. It is possible to do that via the lava-tool command (you can get a bundle from validation.l.o and upload it into the local instance).

Well... that would be an overkill I guess for now.
Also, do we really need to make tests run locally? We might just want to import some data in order to use it for development, and in case update that data with more recent one taken from validation.l.o.

Took a shot at installing and running LAVA from inside the ci-dashboard, and it looks good.
One thing though: maybe add something in the HACKING file. When you run it, it asks you for your "sudo" password, might be better to know why it needs it. Also, better to give a link for the LAVA docs.

Overall it looks good to me, so approving, just add those while merging.
Thanks!
