Currently, 95% of the QA commands are executed in the same way: on the
master, based on a command list and with expectancies for succes:

    AssertEqual(StartSSH(master['primary'],
                         utils.ShellQuoteArgs(cmd)).wait(), 0)

The rest 5% are variations on this theme (maybe the command needs to
fail, or the node is different, etc.). Based on this, we can simplify
the code significantly if we abstract the common theme into a new
AssertCommand() function. This saves ~250 lines of code in the QA suite,
around 8% of the entire QA code size.

Additionally, the output was very cryptic before (the famous "QA error:
1 != 0" messages), whereas now we show a clear error message (node,
command, exit code and failure mode).

The patch replaces single quotes with double quotes in all the parts of
the code that I touch; let me know if that's not OK…

The interaction with cron-launched watcher is a well-known failure mode of QA:

---- 2010-10-14 06:54:55.464839 time=0:00:56.764827 Test tools/move-instance

For the following tests it's recommended to turn off the ganeti-watcher cronjob.

---- 2010-10-14 06:54:55.465255 start Test automatic restart of instance by ganeti-watcher
…
Error: Domain 'instance1' does not exist.
Command: ssh -oEscapeChar=none -oBatchMode=yes -l root -t -oStrictHostKeyChecking=yes

---- 2010-10-14 06:55:04.513948 time=0:00:09.048693 Test automatic restart of instance by ganeti-watcher

In order to fix this, we disable the watcher during these tests, and
re-enable it afterwards. To protect against watcher being disabled, we
enable it unconditionally at the start of the QA (we do want it enabled,
in order to see the interaction between the watcher and many
creation/disk replace jobs, etc.).

Note: even after this patch, if a cron-watcher was started and is still
running during the test, we'll have locking issues. I think for now this
is OK, we'll have to see how often that happens.

To my knowledge they're used nowhere and it's at least slightly
confusing to people adding new QA checks.

This makes the tests much more reliably because it avoids race conditions.
It also helps to speed them up a lot.
