My first A-team project: install all the tests!

As a welcoming bug to the A-team I had to deal with changing what tests get packaged.
The goal was to include all tests on a tests.zip regardless if they are marked as disabled on the test manifests or not.

Changing it the packaging was not too difficult as I already had pointers from jgriffin, the problem came with the runners.
The B2G emulator and desktop mochitest runners did not read the manifests; what they did is to run all tests that came inside of the tests.zip (even disabled ones).

Unfortunately for me, the mochitest runners code is very very old and it was hard to figure out how to make it work as clean as possible. I did a lot of mistakes and landed it twice incorrectly (improper try landing and lost my good patch somewhere) - sorry Ryan!.

After a lot of tweaking it, reviews from jmaher and help from ted & ahal, it landed last week.

For more details you can read bug 989583.

PS = Using trigger_arbitrary_builds.py was priceless to speed up my development.

Who doesn't like cheating on the Try server?

Have you ever forgotten about adding a platform to your Try push and had to push again?
Have you ever wished to *just* make changes to a tests.zip file without having to build it first?
Well, this is your lucky day!

In this wiki page, I describe how to trigger arbitrary jobs on you try push.
As always be gentle with how you use it as we all share the resources.

Go crazy!
