Some boards are known to be broken and it is convenient to be able to
exclude them from the build.
Add an --exclude option to specific boards to exclude. This uses the
same matching rules as the normal 'include' arguments, and is a comma-
separated list of regular expressions.

In Python, sys.exit() function can also take an object other
than an integer.
If an integer is given to the argument, Python exits with the return
code of it. If a non-integer argument is given, Python outputs it
to stderr and exits with the return code of 1.
That means,
print >> sys.stderr, "Blah Blah"
sys.exit(1)
is equivalent to
sys.exit("Blah Blah")
The latter is a useful shorthand.
Note:
Some error messages in Buildman and Patman were output to stdout.
But they should go to stderr. They are also fixed by this commit.
This is a nice side effect.

Currently buildman allows a list of boards to build to be specified on the
command line. The list can include specific board names, architecture, SOC
and so on.
At present the list of boards is dealt with in an 'OR' fashion, and there
is no way to specify something like 'arm & freescale', meaning boards with
ARM architecture but only those made by Freescale. This would exclude the
PowerPC boards made by Freescale.
Support an '&' operator on the command line to permit this. Ensure that
arguments can be specified in a single string to permit easy shell quoting.

Normally buildman operates in two passes - one to do the build and another
to summarise the errors. Add a verbose option (-v) to display build problems
as they happen. With -e also given, this will display errors too.
When building the current source tree (rather than a list of commits in a
branch), both -v and -e are enabled automatically.

We need the output options to be available in several places. It's a pain
to pass them into each function. Make them properties of the builder and
add a single function to set them up. At the same time, add a function which
produces summary output using these options.

Originally buildman had some support for building the current source tree.
However this was dropped before it was submitted, as part of the effort to
make it faster when building entire branches.

At present buildman always builds out-of-tree, that is it uses a separate
output directory from the source directory. Normally this is what you want,
but it is important that in-tree builds work also. Some Makefile changes may
break this.
Add a -i option to tell buildman to use in-tree builds, so that it is easy
to test this feature.

Normally buildman wil try to configure U-Boot for a particular board on the
first commit that it builds in a series. Subsequent commits are built
without reconfiguring which normally works. Where it doesn't, buildman
automatically reconfigures and retries.
To fully emulate the way MAKEALL works, we should have an option to disable
this optimisation.
Add a -C option to cause buildman to always reconfigure on each commit.

After a build fails buildman will reconfigure and try again, if it did not
reconfigure before the build. However it doesn't actually keep track of
whether it did reconfigure on the previous attempt.
Fix that logic to avoid a pointless rebuild. This speeds things up quite a
bit for failing builds. Previously they would always be built twice.

Generally a build failure with a particular commit cannot be fixed except
by changing that commit. Changing the commit will automatically cause
buildman to retry when you run it again: buildman sees that the commit
hash is different and that it has no previous build result for the new
commit hash.
However sometimes the build failure is due to a toolchain issue or some
other environment problem. In that case, retrying failed builds may yield
a different result.
Add a flag to retry failed builds. This differs from the force rebuild
flag (-f) in that it will not rebuild commits which are already marked as
succeeded.

A common use-case is to build all boards for a particular SoC. This can
be achieved by:
./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev tegra20
However, when the SoC is a member of a family of SoCs, and each SoC has
a different name, it would be even more useful to build all boards for
every SoC in that family. This currently isn't possible since buildman's
board selection command-line arguments are compared to board definitions
using pure string equality.
To enable this, compare using a regex match instead. This matches
MAKEALL's handling of command-line arguments. This enables:
(all Tegra)
./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev tegra
(all Tegra)
./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev '^tegra.*$'
(all Tegra20, Tegra30 boards, but not Tegra114)
./tools/buildman/buildman -b mainline_dev 'tegra[23]'

When a toolchain invocation fails, an exception is thrown but not caught
which then aborts the entire toolchain detection process. To solve this,
request that exceptions not be thrown, since the toolchain init code
already error-checks the command result. This solves e.g.:
- found '/usr/bin/winegcc'
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
Exception: Error running '/usr/bin/winegcc --version'
