It doesn't make sense to complain about missing toolchains when the
--fetch-arch option is being used. The user is presumably aware that there
is a toolchain problem and is actively correcting it by running with this
option.
Refactor the code to avoid printing this confusing message.

Use colour to make it easier to see what is going on. Also print a message
before downloading a new toolchain. Mention --fetch-arch in the message that
is shown when there are no available toolchains, since this is the quickest
way to resolve the problem.

One use-case for buildman is to continually run it interactively after
each small step in a large refactoring operation. This gives more
immediate feedback than making a number of commits and then going back and
testing them. For this to work well, buildman needs to be extremely fast.
At present, a couple issues prevent it being as fast as it could be:
1) Each time buildman runs "make %_defconfig", it runs "make mrproper"
first. This throws away all previous build results, requiring a
from-scratch build. Optionally avoiding this would speed up the build, at
the cost of potentially causing or missing some build issues.
2) A build tree is created per thread rather than per board. When a thread
switches between building different boards, this often causes many files
to be rebuilt due to changing config options. Using a separate build tree
for each board would avoid this. This does put more strain on the system's
disk cache, but it is worth it on my system at least.
This commit adds two command-line options to implement the changes
described above; -I ("--incremental") turns of "make mrproper" and -P
("--per-board-out-dir") creats a build directory per board rather than per
thread.
Tested:
./tools/buildman/buildman.py tegra
./tools/buildman/buildman.py -I -P tegra
./tools/buildman/buildman.py -b tegra_dev tegra
./tools/buildman/buildman.py -b tegra_dev -I -P tegra
... each once after deleting the buildman result/work directory, and once
"incrementally" after a previous identical invocation.

Buildman normally obtains the upstream commit by asking git. Provided that
the branch was created with 'git checkout -b <branch> <some_upstream>' then
this normally works.
When there is no upstream, we can try to guess one, by looking up through
the commits until we find a branch. Add a function to try this and print
a warning if buildman ends up relying on it.
Also update the documentation to match.

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.

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.

this optimisation.
Add a -C option to cause buildman to always reconfigure on each commit.

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.
