[OE-core] [PATCH 0/8] Automated hardware testing improvements

[Paul Eggleton]

These add functionality required to deploy images and run tests on a
wider range of real hardware, as well as improving robustness in a
couple of areas.

A related patchset to add testing for two of the Yocto Project reference
platforms (beaglebone and edgerouter) will be sent for meta-yocto-bsp.
