[Buildroot] [PATCH 00/13] autobuild-run: python3 compat and misc improvements

Patches 1-4 make autobuild-run compatible with both python >=2.6 and 3.

Patches 5-9 are minor enhancements (mostly cleanup).

Patches 10- are more invasive:
* move the check_requirements() logic to the SystemInfo class
* control environment(->locale), std{in,out,err} of all called commands

Tested w/ python2.7 and python3.4, but not python2.6 (it should work, though).


This changeset should be mostly compatible with the
"autobuild-run improvements" patchset from Thomas De Schampheleire, except for:

* autobuild-run: extend TODO list

  * implements "Integrate method check-requirements with the SysInfo class,
    distinghuishing  between required and optional dependencies.",
    so this item can be removed from the TODO list

* autobuild-run: check-requirements does not need to know the login details

  * dep on "curl" gets set in main()

* autobuild-run: set LC_ALL=C to not use locale settings of host machine

  * SystemInfo maintains its own env dict and passes it to subprocess.call()
  * ^ tries to find a "comparable" locale: either en_US[.UTF-8] or C
    (My experience is that some python (build) scripts fail if the locale
    is not *.utf-8.)
  * remove all LANG, LC_* vars from the env if a "comparable" locale is found
    and set LANG=<locale>
