This updates the mentions of the Avocado packages to new package
names.

Also, it tries to bring a more focused content to the README file,
that is, something more brief and direct, while using the updated
package names.

The current README talks about a vision for Avocado.  This made sense
a while ago, but right now, it's better to describe what Avocado
currently is.

The project vision can be seen from our planning boards.

self.cancel() should be accepted everywhere, including setUp()
and tearDown().

Skip decorators are intended to skip the test. Skipping the test means
also no setUp() and no tearDown(). This patch makes the setUp() and
tearDown() to be also skipped when using the skip decorators.

This patch creates an optional plugin to run Robot Framework tests
inside Avocado.
Signed-off-by: NAmador Pahim <apahim@redhat.com>

In many cases when you are developing a test suite using
avocado libraries, you want to flag certain exceptional
conditions as real test failures, rather than something
that will be converted to an ERROR status (the current
default behavior).

Consider QEMU testing: An exception involving a QEMU core
dump should be considered a failure in pretty much every
scenario one can think of. So it makes sense to have code
similar to:

from avocado import TestFail

QEMUCoreDump(TestFail):
    pass

so that when said exception happens inside library code,
the test can be immediately flagged as a failure, without
having to introduce boilerplate code to check for error
conditions.

So at least the 3 main test related exceptions (TestFail,
TestError and TestCancel) should be directly exposed in
the test writer API. Methods such as self.fail() are
neat shortcuts for simpler cases and should be used,
but entirely isolating access to *all* avocado exceptions
is detrimental to the goal of reducing boilerplate code
in tests.

This patch adds the mentioned 3 test exceptions to the
avocado namespace, making them part of the test writer
API.

We have received many requests to support skip tests from inside the
test method. As we can do that without breaking our own concepts, we
decided to introduce the CANCEL status and the corresponding
self.cancel() method to the Test class.

To make sure the seltests does not leave job results behind,
we introduced a check which compares the job-results directory
content from before the selftets with the content after the
selftests. But using `AVOCADO_SELF_CHECK=1 make check`, we
expect at least one extra result in the job-results directory,
making the content of the job-results to not be the same after
the tests.

This patch changes the avocado command used for self check
in `make check`, pointing the results to a temporary directory.

On some environments, such as when building RPM packages, very little
can be assumed to be available.  `man` is such as command that is
*not* available, so let's check for it and skip tests accordingly.
