[PATCH 1/2] testbot: Make the job scheduler more extensible.

- The new scheduler splits the work into smaller steps: assessing the
current situation, starting tasks on idle VMs and building a list of
needed VMs, reverting the VMs, powering off the remaining VMs,
updating the activity records. Each part can be analyzed
independently. It uses the $Sched structure to pass information
between these functions.
- Sometimes a VM that no Task needs must be powered off in order to be
able to prepare a VM that is needed. The job of picking which VM to
sacrifice is now delegated to _SacrificeVM().
- The scheduler used to handle each VM host independently. As a result
it was unable to prepare a VM for the 'next step' if that VM was on
another VM host. The lack of a global picture also made many other
extensions impossible. The new scheduler handles scheduling on all
VM hosts at the same time, thus solving this issue.
- This and other improvements mean the scheduler no longer needs to loop
over the jobs and tasks multiple times.
- In order to respect the per-VM-host limits the scheduler stores the
host-related counters and limits in the $Sched->{hosts} table.
- The scheduler also used to build multiple lists of VMs to revert
depending on whether they were needed now, for the next step, or for
future jobs. The new scheduler builds a single prioritised list of
VMs to revert which can be handled in one go. It also keeps more
information so it can better decide which VM to prepare next.
- The scheduler can now also prepare VMs for the 'next step' earlier,
thus making it more likely they will be ready in time.

-A Step's tasks can be run in parallel but only one task can be running in a VM
-at a given time. Also a VM must be prepared before it can run its task, see the
-VM Statuses.
+Checks that each VM's state is consistent and fixes the VM state if not. For
+instance, if Status == running then the VM should have a child process. If
+there is no such process, or if it died, then the VM should be brought back
+to a coherent state, typically by marking it dirty so it is either powered off
+or reverted.
=item *
-The number of active VMs on the host must be kept under $MaxActiveVMs. This
-includes any VM using resources, including those that are being reverted. The
-rational behind this limit is that the host may not be able to run more VMs
-simultaneously, typically due to memory or CPU constraints. Also note that
-this limit must be respected even if there is more than one hypervisor running
-on the host.
+Counts the VMs in each state so the scheduler can respect the limits put on the
+number of simultaneous active VMs, reverting VMs, and so on.
=item *
-The number of VMs being reverted on the host at a given time must be kept under
-$MaxRevertingVMs, or $MaxRevertsWhileRunningVMs if some VMs are currently
-running tests. This may be set to 1 in case the hypervisor gets confused when
-reverting too many VMs at once.
+Puts the VMs in one of three sets:
+- The set of busyvms.
+ This is the set of VMs that are doing something important, for instance
+ running a Task, and should not be messed with.
+- The set of lambvms.
+ This is the set of VMs that use resources (they are powered on), but are
+ not doing anything important (idle, sleeping and dirty VMs). If the scheduler
+ is hitting the limits but still needs to power on one more VM, it can power
+ off one of these to make room.
+- The set of powered off VMs.
+ These are the VMs which are in neither the busyvms nor the lambvms set. Since
+ they are powered off they are not using resources.
=item *
-Once there are no jobs to run anymore the scheduler can prepare up to
-$MaxVMsWhenIdle VMs (or $MaxActiveVMs if not set) for future jobs.
-This can be set to 0 to minimize the TestBot resource usage when idle.
-This can also be set to a value greater than $MaxActiveVMs. Then only
-$MaxActiveVMs tasks will be run simultaneously but the extra idle VMs will be
-kept on standby so they are ready when their turn comes.
+Each VM is given a priority describing the likelihood that it will be needed
+by a future job. When no other VM is running this can be used to decide which
+VMs to start in advance.

-Goes through the WineTestBot hosts and schedules the Job tasks on each of
-them using WineTestBot::Jobs::ScheduleOnHost().
+Goes through the pending Jobs to run their queued Tasks. This implies preparing
+the VMs while staying within the VM hosts resource limits. In particular this
+means taking the following constraints into account:
+
+=over
+
+=item *
+
+Jobs should be run in decreasing order of priority.
+
+=item *
+
+A Job's Steps must be run in sequential order.
+
+=item *
+
+A Step's tasks can be run in parallel but only one task can be running in a VM
+at a given time. Also a VM must be prepared before it can run its task, see the
+VM Statuses.
+
+=item *
+
+The number of active VMs on the host must be kept under $MaxActiveVMs. Any
+VM using resources counts as an active VM, including those that are being
+reverted. This limit is meant to ensure the VM host will have enough memory,
+CPU or I/O resources for all the active VMs. Also note that this limit must be
+respected even if there is more than one hypervisor running on the host.
+
+=item *
+
+The number of VMs being reverted on the host at a given time must be kept under
+$MaxRevertingVMs, or $MaxRevertsWhileRunningVMs if some VMs are currently
+running tests. This may be set to 1 in case the hypervisor gets confused when
+reverting too many VMs at once.
+
+=item *
+
+Once there are no jobs to run anymore the scheduler can prepare up to
+$MaxVMsWhenIdle VMs (or $MaxActiveVMs if not set) for future jobs.
+This can be set to 0 to minimize the TestBot resource usage when idle.
+This can also be set to a value greater than $MaxActiveVMs. Then only
+$MaxActiveVMs tasks will be run simultaneously but the extra idle VMs will be
+kept on standby so they are ready when their turn comes.
