Expose PluginLoader's get_plugin_class via PluginCache. PluginCache is
basically intented to act like a PluginLoader, except when instantiating
plugins, the "default" parameter values are taken form the cached
configruation, rather than the actual defaults defined in the Plugin's
parmaters.
Currently if you get confused and write a config with something like:
energy_measurement:
acme_cape
Then you get an error when we try to 'iteritems' on the value
'acme_cape'. Instead, explicitly check for this case.
Currently if your config contains
typo_for_a_global_alias: 1
You will get an error where we try to call 'iteritems' on the value 1. This
commit re-orders the checks so that you instead get an error for the
unrecognised 'typo_for_a_global_alias'.
PluginCache.get_plugin_config assumes that no more configuration is to
be processed, and therefore config is final. As such, it is validating
that mandatory parameters are set. This assumption is invalid for
workload_parameters, however, as those need to be resolved on per-spec
basis, and cannot be globally cached.
This commit adds a prameter for get_plugin_config that indicates whether
or not it should consider the config to be final.
Connection settings were not being properly extracted from device_config
and not used. Meaning it was impossible to e.g. specify the adb device
to use for a run.
This ensures that connection settings are extracted, validated, and used
properly.
Changing the way target descriptions work from a static mapping to
something that is dynamically generated and is extensible via plugins.
Also moving core target implementation stuff under "framework".
