This is probably a little more efficient and it allows passing the object
to another function to write data. Convert config_out to use a string I/O
device.

The patman directory has a number of modules which are used by other tools
in U-Boot. This makes it hard to package the tools using pypi since the
common files must be copied along with the tool that uses them.
To address this, move these files into a new u_boot_pylib library. This
can be packaged separately and listed as a dependency of each tool.

This is quite a useful thing to use when building since it avoids small
size changes between commits. Add a -r flag for it.
Also undefine CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO since this appends the git hash
to the version string, causing every build to be slightly different.

Buildman should consider a build as a success (with warnings) if missing
blobs have been dealt with by binman, even though buildman itself returns
and error code overall. This is how other warnings are dealt with.
We cannot easily access the 103 exit code, so detect the problem in the
output.
With this change, missing blobs result in an exit code of 101, although
they still indicate failure.

We have a module called 'board'. Sometimes buildman uses 'brd' as an
instance variable but sometimes it uses 'board', which is confusing and
can mess with the module handling. Update the code to use 'brd'
consistently, making it easier for tools to determine when the module
is being referenced.

Add a -a option to specify changes to the config before the build
commences. For example
buildman -a ~CONFIG_CMDLINE
disables CONFIG_CMDLINE before doing the build.
This makes it easier to try things out as well as to write tests without
creating a new board or manually manging the .config file.

At present buildman does not write any output (to the 'out' and 'err)
files if the build terminates with a fatal error. This is to avoid adding
lots of spam to the logs.
However there are times when this is actually useful, such as when the
build fails for an obscure reason such as a Kconfig loop.
Update the logic to always write the output, so that the user gets a clue
as to what is happening.

At present we sometimes see problems in gitlab where the environment has
0x80 characters or sequences which are not valid UTF-8.
Avoid this by using bytes for the environment, both internal to buildman
and when writing out the 'env' file. Add a test to make sure this works
as expected.

There have been at least a few cases where an exception has occurred in a

Handle these by collecting a list of exceptions, printing them out and
reporting failure if any are found. Add a test for this.

The environment may contain some unicode characters. At least that is what

Buildman reuses build directories from previous builds to avoid the cost
of 'make mrproper' for every build. If the previous build produced an SPL
image but the current one does not, the SPL image will remain and buildman
will think it is a result of building the current board.
Remove these files before building, to avoid this problem.

At present patman sets the python path on startup so that it can access
the libraries it needs. If we convert to use absolute imports this is not
necessary.
Move patman to use absolute imports. This requires changes in tools which
use the patman libraries (which is most of them).

At present buildman does not write its own output files (err, done, the
environment) when using -w. However this is useful for when the build is
run with -s to check it.
In fact ProduceResultSummary() reads the result from those files rather
than using the 'result' info directly. So ProcessResult() does not work
with -w at present. It does not print any output.
Fix this by writing output files even when -w is used.

At present the environment used by U-Boot is written to the 'env'
directory. This is fine when the output directory is not the same as the
source directory, but when it is (as with -w) it conflicts with the source
directory of the same name.
Rename 'env' to 'out-env' to fix this.

At present buildman defaults to running 'mrproper' on every thread before
it starts building commits for each board. This can add a delay of about 5
seconds to the start of the process, since the tools and other invariants
must be rebuilt.
In particular, a build without '-b', to build current source, runs much
slower without -I, since any existing build is removed, thus losing the
possibility of an incremental build.
Partly this behaviour was to avoid strange build-system problems caused by
running 'make defconfig' for one board and then one with a different
architecture. But these problems were fixed quite a while ago.
The -I option (which disabled mrproper) was introduced four years ago and
does not seem to cause any problems with builds.
So make -I the default and deprecate the option. To allow use of
'mrproper', add a new -m flag.

The 'done' files created by buildman may end up being empty if buildman
runs out of disk space while writing them. This error is then persistent,
since even if disk space is reclaimed and the build retries, the empty
file causes an exception in the builder thread.
Deal with this silently by doing a rebuild.
