Marc Bonnici a8a8d21de6 AndroidWorkload: Modified workload to properly check for an apks abi
Previously when retrieving apks only it's name would be used to choose
an apk. Now the native code reported by the apk is used to determine
the correct version to run for the specific device. It tries to
match the primary abi of device with native code before falling back to
using a compatible apk.

When using the check_abi parameter it no longer relies on naming convention
and only allows apks with native code supporting a devices primary abi to be
used.

Updated the relevant documentation.

Workload Automation
+++++++++++++++++++

Workload Automation (WA) is a framework for executing workloads and collecting
measurements on Android and Linux devices. WA includes automation for nearly 50
workloads (mostly Android), some common instrumentation (ftrace, ARM
Streamline, hwmon).  A number of output formats are supported. 

Workload Automation is designed primarily as a developer tool/framework to
facilitate data driven development by providing a method of collecting
measurements from a device in a repeatable way.

Workload Automation is highly extensible. Most of the concrete functionality is
implemented via plug-ins, and  it is easy to write new plug-ins to support new
device types, workloads, instrumentation or output processing. 


Requirements
============

- Python 2.7
- Linux (should work on other Unixes, but untested)
- Latest Android SDK (ANDROID_HOME must be set) for Android devices, or
- SSH for Linux devices


Installation
============

To install::

        python setup.py sdist
        sudo pip install dist/wlauto-*.tar.gz

Please refer to the `installation section <./doc/source/installation.rst>`_ 
in the documentation for more details.


Basic Usage
===========

Please see the `Quickstart <./doc/source/quickstart.rst>`_ section of the
