The unittest module, and unittest2 backport on Python 2.6, is capable of
finding unittests and running them. So, effectively, we do not need nose
at all.

This patch removes the dependency on nose, replacing the run script
with a version based solely on the unittest module.

One change of functionality is that run now looks and runs tests in the
standard selftests directories (unit, functional, doc), and does not
accept command line arguments. If one wants to run a subset of them,
it's pretty easy to just use the unittest module for that:

 $ python -m unittest discover -s selftests/unit

The recent API reorganization made a module requiring
importlib to be loaded at setup stage. Hence the backport
python-importlib, available in EPEL, has to be added to
the BuildRequires field of the spec.

The initial idea about the avocado.restclient namespace was that
eventually users could write scripts using that as an API to
interact with avocado-server using Python code.

While the idea is still valid, the avocado-server interface is
a simple and standards compliant RESTful interface. Thus, users
can still easily interact with it without us having to support
a formal Python API at this point.

In the future, if need arises, we can improve the Python REST
client API and promote it to a public namespace.

This change adds flexibility to the current sysinfo implementation in
the sense that the commands to be executed and files to be collected
are no longer hard coded, but configurable.

The configuration file gains a section for that, and the files
themselves are plain text files that can be easily customized by users
to include extra commands/files.

Also, the the configuration for the profilers has been adjusted for a
uniform look, feel and experience.

Changes from v1:
 * Return the default `profiler` parameter value to None, so that it
   looks at the configuration value by default

It seems a good idea, and another safety net, to run the selftests
during the build of packages. For now, it's not trivial to run the
functional tests, so let's at least run the unittests.

Another current limitation is that unittests are only run on Fedora
and not on EL6 or EL7, and the reason for that are missing
dependencies on both EPEL6 and EPEL7.

The basic idea here is to put all common requirements on a common line
and deal with the differences in conditional blocks.

Also, python-flexmock is not available on EPEL 7, but available on all
other supported platforms.

Finally, python-yaml and PyYAML are in their own lines because it
makes it easier to see that they're the same package with different
names.

This means that we include the Makefile in the source tarball and just
use the `man` target.

With regards to portability among Python version, this should not be
an issue as rst2man on the system itself will the correct version. In
a sense, it's just another utility, it doesn't really matter it's
written in Python.

This patch is initial support for people using custom bash scripts
with avocado. Tests should use:

    PATH=$(avocado "exec-path"):$PATH

and then they can utilize the helpers.

This version contain functions to write to Test.log the same way it's
possible from python including failing the test with TestWarn in case
avocado_warn was used.

An essential part of a client interacting with avocado-server is to handle
the reponse of a request. The most common type of response type is a
results reponse, when one performs a GET to a resource "root" path and
and expects to return a list of resources.

To make that more pythonic, this commit introduces a ResultResponse class
that accepts the JSON response data and checks for completeness. If
results response fails to comply with the required data members, meaningful
exceptions will be raised.

Whatever is in the system wide settings can be later
overriden by users. Also, change the settings.config_path
attribute to settings.config_paths, and change it to
a list. This way users can see the order in which their
config files are parsed. Also, Introduce a system wide conf.d
directory, that is supposed to ship config files for avocado
plugins. The order for config parsing is:

 * System wide avocado config (/etc/avocado/avocado.conf)
 * System wide avocado plugins config (/etc/avocado/conf.d/*.conf)
 * Local config for the user running avocado (~/.config/avocado/avocado.conf)
