GDB: add `--gdb-prerun-commands` option to GDB plugin

This feature allows custom GDB commands to be executed before the
actual binary is run. What it can do then, is only limited by the
user's goals.

This is intended to allow complex applications, such as QEMU,
to be debugged inside Avocado tests. Configuring GDB for QEMU,
for example, involves passing signals to the application that
would otherwise result in an event that would stop the debugger.

avocado.plugins.plugin: Create get_resources_path API

Allow other plugins to locate resources through the
new get_resource_path API. It'll return correctly
the full path for the given resource file, and the
interface is similar to the os.join() API.

Avocado: Add htmlresult plugin

Add a plugin to write a job summary HTML page.
The plugin takes results and creates a JSON context, that
is used by the pystache library, to render an HTML page
using a mustache template.

This commit contains the base plugin code, and the resource
files used by the plugin (bootstrap for some of the js, base
css, datatables for the test results table functionality).

avocado.job: If possible, write an HTML report at the job results dir

If the HTML plugin is enabled on this install, write a

help people to read avocado test results on a portable
and pleasant way.

GDB: let user choose the GDB binary to use

Developers using Avocado's GDB support may need to use their custom
build of GDB, or simply their system has GDB at a different location.
So, allow users to optionally specify the path to the GDB binary.

Also, allow GDB API users to pass extra options to GDB via the command
line.

Changes from v1:
   * use `avocado.utils.process.find_command` as the first default
     location for the gdb binary, falling back to the hard coded
     default of `/usr/bin/gdb` if that fails.

GDB: let user choose the gdbserver binary to use

Developers using Avocado's GDB support may also need to use their custom
build of gdbserver.

This implements the same logic and options as the previous commit does
for the GDB binary, including API level changes.

Changes from v1:
   * use `avocado.utils.process.find_command` as the first default
     location for the gdbserver binary, falling back to the hard coded
     default of `/usr/bin/gdbserver` if that fails.

passtest: introduce simplest possible test that passes

The idea is twofold:

1) Show that a test passes simply by not failing, and doing nothing
   means it can't fail
2) Where appropriate, use this in our own functional tests to reduce
   the selftest runtime.

Reorganize requirements.txt and Travis CI job

Document requirements.txt, split it into 3 files:

 * requirements.txt - Used to install deps for functionality
 * tests-requirements.txt - Used to install deps to test avocado
 * travis-requirements.txt - Used exclusively for Travis CI jobs

Also, clean up and simplify Travis install job section.
