LAVA: Integrate Binder Unit Test

Registered by Zach Pfeffer

Why?
Binder is a key component in Android and any changes to it should be unit-tested. To ensure the changes are tested the test should be integrated into LAVA.

Context?
Android kernel upstreaming and development.

What gets produced?
A test case that LAVA will run for all required Android builds.

Where will the work get put?
Stock binder native benchmark test is used. Test result will be available on respective Android build page.

Notes:
[2012/12/18 pfefferz] Please put notes here.
[2013/1/15 pfeffez] The goal is to add a "binder" test to LAVA

You would add, "binder" to:
LAVA_TEST_PLAN="busybox,0xbench,skia,v8,monkey,cts"
so it becomes:
LAVA_TEST_PLAN="binder,busybox,0xbench,skia,v8,monkey,cts"
in
https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android-restricted/juice-aosp/
[2013/1/15 pfefferz] Added 2 more WIs related to LAVA and automation.
[2013/1/21 pundiramit] Pushed "shell-binder" test in lava-android-test.
[2013/1/25 pundiramit] blackbox wrapper for binder test need to move to next cycle since linaro-android-build-tools do not support submitting lava-test-shell based tests to lava currently.

Meta:
Duration: 2w
Headline: The binder unit test has been automated
Roadmap id: CARD-334
Acceptance:
1. The stock binder native benchmark test has been automated.
