Merge lp://staging/~gmdduf/lava-dispatcher/gauss-support into lp://staging/lava-dispatcher

Hello Bernard,

Thanks for this submission. I have just reviewed it and found a few
problems, which have to be addressed before we merge this code.

This is not needed, as attempts is already an integer.

This change does not apply anymore, please undo it.

The dispatcher will look for config file in several directories, not
only in `config_dir`. So saying that the file was not found in
`config_dir` is not correct.

gauss.py is an exact copy of highbank.py

This is good because it means you could make it work without any change
there.

But it is bad from a maintaince point of view because we don't want to
maintain two copies of the same code.

So, I created a new merge proposal generalizing highbank.py to
ipmi_pxe.py, which basically only changes a couple of names:
https://code.launchpad.net/~terceiro/lava-dispatcher/generalize-ipmi-pxe/+merge/164781

This code will be merged in trunk in a few days, after one of the other
LAVA team members reviews it, and you should be able to use it then.
