[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/17] buildman: A few more features and improvements (Christmas edition)

[Simon Glass]

Various people (on CC) have suggested improvements and reported bugs in
buildman. I've done a pass through these and this series is the result.
In summary the main changes are:

- Flatten the output tree for 'current source builds'
- Improve docs to talk about Python environment and ~/.buildman file
- Toolchain path improvements and changes
- Download and install a new toolchain automatically
- Guess the upstream commit instead of requiring it to be set
- Access to the full build output
- Support for building an arbitrary range of commits
