Tooltool fetching can now use LDAP credentials from a file

You can now fetch tooltool files by using an authentication file.
All you have to do is append "--authentication-file file" to your tooltool fetching command.

• Tooltool change
• Mozharness change

This is important if you want to use automation to fetch files from tooltool on your behalf.
This was needed to allow Android test jobs to run locally since we need to download tooltool files for it.

EDIT: Fixed the tooltool hyperlink
EDIT: Removed labels to avoid re-posting after edit

Run Android test jobs locally

You can now run Android test jobs on your local machine with Mozharness.

As with any other developer capable Mozharness script, all you have to do is:

• Append --cfg developer_config.py
• Append --installer-url and --test-url with appropriate URIs

An example for this is:

python scripts/android_emulator_unittest.py --cfg android/androidarm.py
--test-suite mochitest-gl-1 --blob-upload-branch try
--download-symbols ondemand --cfg developer_config.py
--installer-url http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-android-api-9/en-US/fennec-37.0a1.en-US.android-arm.apk
--test-url http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/nightly/latest-mozilla-central-android-api-9/en-US/fennec-37.0a1.en-US.android-arm.tests.zip

Here's the bug where the work happened.
Here's the documentation on how to run Mozharness as a developer.

Please file a bug under Mozharness if you find any issues.

Disclaimers

Bug 1117954- I think that I need a different SDK or emulator version is needed to run Android API 10 jobs.

I wish we run all of our jobs in proper isolation!
