Allow installing DSE from a source branch

nastra commented 8 years ago

This PR allows us to run a perf test where we can install DSE from a branch.

All sensitive information (artifactory username / password / url and an oauth token for checking out the DSE branch) will be provided through cluster_config.json.
The user enters bdp/DSP-1234 in the revision field of the UI. Due to the prefix bdp/ in the revision field, we know that the user wants to build from a branch.
We extract the branch name DSP-1234 from that revision field and then use it to checkout this particular branch.
Depending on the DSE version, we either need to run a legacy ant build or a gradle build.
The source build will create a tarball from the specified branch and will be running on the node that is hosting cstar_perf.tool. Once the tarball got created, it will be uploaded as specified in https://github.com/datastax/cstar_perf/blob/2444911d9ec5e2d0bd59466ef83f1ebf175c30a9/tool/cstar_perf/tool/fab_dse.py#L114-L119.

@EnigmaCurry / @aboudreault can you guys review please?

LGTM, can you do another PR for the additional cluster config settings (docs)?

Yes, I will provide another PR that documents those new changes, but I won't get to it until next week
