Currently avocado adds custom handlers of SIGINT and SIGUSR1 in order to
produce traceback and notify about user interaction or timeout. This
could be missleading in case the test uses those signals and potentially
dangerous as some tests assume default behavior.

This patch removes the custom handling of SIGINT and SIGUSR1 and
reports the failure in `job.log`. Additionally it tries to inject the
error message in the test output, if status.logfile available.

In order to keep the useful traceback in case of interruption, this
patch overrides the default SIGTERM handler. The default behavior of
SIGTERM is to die, our custom handler raises SystemExit with info saying
the test was interrupted by sigterm, which should generate traceback and
finish. The runner then changes the result to INTERRUPTED, so even
when the test modifies the SIGTERM handler, we get the correct status.

Worth mentioning that in case test ignores SIGTERM, SIGKILL is emitted
by the runner, so this should be safe approach.

The `test` and `app` loggers are used many times in
`avocado.core.runner`. This patch stores them as global variables and
uses them in the module.

Currently the sysinfo info on the HTML report only shows the pre-test
phase of sysinfo.  It should really include all three phases.

The content of the profiler section is, of course, dependant on that
type of collection having been activated (which is not by default).

The machine hostname is extracted from the sysinfo file, and it
contains a newline.  While really minor, it produces the following HTML code:

   <tr>
       <td>Host</td><td><tt>localhost.localdomain
 </tt></td>
   </tr>

Instead of:

   <tr>
       <td>Host</td><td><tt>localhost.localdomain</tt></td>
   </tr>

So, let's remove the trailing newline.

The reason is that some test results, such as the HTML report, contain
sysinfo data.  Without this change, it's impossible to embed post-test
sysinfo data into such test results.

This patch fixes and improves resolving of the test aliases (paths
relative to `data_dir.get_tests_dir`).

1. It removes the magic `.py` suffix, which prevented non-python files
   from being resolved (simple.sh was resolved to $tests/simple.sh.py)
2. It adds the feature to filter the class/method from the test
   reference by parsing $test_reference:$class.$method for implicit
   resolver. (previously this worked only for absolute path resolver)

Visible changes are:

* `avocado run passtest` => fails (used to work)
* `avocado run passtest.py` => works (did not work)
* `avocado run env_variables.sh` => works (did not work)
* `avocado run passtest.py:PassTest.test` => works (did not work)

Currently we have a travis script to run make check with every
commit on the PR. But the script is hard coded to get the commit
list using the branch master as reference.

This commit uses travis env variables to make the script branch
independent, so we can have the same .travis.yaml file for every
branch we create (LTS branches for instance).

Python ignores SIGPIPE on startup, because it prefers to check every
write and raise an IOError exception rather than taking the signal.

This patch changes SIGPIPE back to its default action in order to
behave correctly.

Travis will clone the repo and then fetch the pull-request, regardless
the branch it's coming from. That's why a PR has to contain the correct
parenting. But the build will happen only if the PR is proposed to an
enabled branch. That's what this PR enables.

If Ctrl+C is hit outside the loop waiting for the test, instead
of failing nicelly, Avocado crashes.

This patch adds a try/except for the run_suite function so we can

This release introduces a new versioning scheme, so the "big bump"
from 0.34.0 to 35.0 is not such a big bump.

the way the remote runner checks for Avocado on the remote host.
