two new major features:
(1) added test and job dependencies
-added M2M relationship between tests and labels and between jobs and labels, for tracking the labels on which a test/job depends
-modified test_importer to read the DEPENDENCIES field and create the right M2M relationships
-modified generate_control_file() RPC to compute and return the union of test dependencies. since generate_control_file now returns four pieces of information, i converted its return type from tuple to dict, and changed clients accordingly.
-modified job creation clients (GWT and CLI) to pass this dependency list to the create_job() RPC
-modified the create_job() RPC to check that hosts satisfy job dependencies, and to create M2M relationships
-modified the scheduler to check dependencies when scheduling jobs
-modified JobDetailView to show a job's dependencies
(2) added "only_if_needed" bit to labels; if true, a machine with this label can only be used if the label is requested (either by job dependencies or by the metahost label)
-added boolean field to Labels
-modified CLI label creation/viewing to support this new field
-made create_job() RPC and scheduler check for hosts with such a label that was not requested, and reject such hosts
also did some slight refactoring of other code in create_job() to simplify it while I was changing things there.
a couple notes:
-an only_if_needed label can be used if either the job depends on the label or it's a metahost for that label. we assume that if the user specifically requests the label in a metahost, then it's OK, even if the job doesn't depend on that label.
-one-time-hosts are assumed to satisfy job dependencies.
