Add an autotest reporgramming DUT firmware through servo.
This autotest allows to program firmware on an 'unresponsive' Chrome
OS DUT, using the servo device. As submitted it supports only Link,
more platforms will be integrated shortly.
A new module (server/cros/programmer.py) is being added to provide the
firmware programmer interface and implementation and
server/cros/servo.py is being extended to export the new module as a
servo object service and adds an interface to execute an arbitrary
shell command on the host controlling the servo device.
Chrome OS DUTs use two distinct firmware types, EC and and AP (a.k.a
bootprom) firmware. Bad firmware can easily brick a DUT, this is why
it is necessary to be able to program firmware on 'dead' DUTs. Servo
devices provide the means of doing it, the new module requires the DUT
to be connected to a servo device. Servo device state is preserved
across the programming process.
The new module is still incomplete, it fully supports Link devices but
not Lucas (ARM platforms) yet.

TEST=try reporgramming a Link connected to both local and remote servo:
. observe current FW versions on the DUT:
$ echo $(ssh 192.168.1.4 ectool version)
RO version: link_v1.1.618-52440ef RW version: link_v1.1.618-52440ef Firmware copy: RO Build info: link_v1.1.618-52440ef 2012-12-05 10:42:46 @build51-m2
$ echo $(ssh 192.168.1.4 crossystem fwid)

. observe the test succeed, check versions
$ echo $(ssh 192.168.1.4 ectool version)

Google_Link.3419.0.0
. connect servo to a Beaglebone (at 192.168.1.103), reboot the board and verify that servod is running
. run with remote servo

TEST=manual
The new methods were used in an upcoming autotest module. It allowed
to reprogram EC and AP firmware on a Link controlled by both local
and remote servos.
