This supports powering up the device (using an external tool you
provide based on your particular lab), talking over serial to wait for
the fastboot prompt, and then booting a fastboot image on a target
device.
I was previously relying on LAVA for this, but that ran afoul of
corporate policies related to the AGPL. However, LAVA wasn't doing
too much for us, given that gitlab already has a job scheduler and
tagging and runners. We were spending a lot of engineering on making
the two systems match up, when we can just have gitlab do it directly.

Since freedreno's kernel and GPU reset seem to be totally solid, we
don't need to have the complexity of the LAVA setup that panfrost has.
Instead, we can register some boards as shared gitlab runners and have
the jobs run out of a docker container just like we do for llvmpipe.
Just make sure that the DRI device node is passed through to the
containers in the gitlab config ('devices = ["/dev/dri"]' under
runners.docker).
If a runner fails (networking dies, kernel panic, etc.) it'll take out
one build but the rest can keep going since gitlab-runner is what
pulls jobs. Since the runner pulls jobs, it also means that they can
live behind firewalls instead of needing some public address to be
accessed by gitlab.fd.o.
For now, enable it just on db410c (A307) and cheza (A630) as those are
the hardware that I have plenty of. A307 is only testing GLES2 since
running all of GLES3 takes too long for the number of boards I've
brought up.
