As @dtzWill discovered, with the concurrent hydra-evaluator, there can
be multiple active transactions adding builds to the database. As a
result, builds can become visible in a non-monotonically increasing
order, breaking the queue monitor's assumption that build IDs only go
up.
The fix is to have hydra-eval-jobset provide the lowest build ID it
just added in the builds_added notification, and have the queue
monitor check from there.
Fixes#496.
This rewrites the top-level loop of hydra-evaluator in C++. The Perl
stuff is moved into hydra-eval-jobset. (Rewriting the entire evaluator
would be nice but is a bit too much work.) The new version has some
advantages:
* It can run multiple jobset evaluations in parallel.
* It uses PostgreSQL notifications so it doesn't have to poll the
database. So if a jobset is triggered via the web interface or from
a GitHub / Bitbucket webhook, evaluation of the jobset will start
almost instantaneously (assuming the evaluator is not at its
concurrency limit).
* It imposes a timeout on evaluations. So if e.g. hydra-eval-jobset
hangs connecting to a Mercurial server, it will eventually be
killed.
