Creator:  Brian Warner <warner at lothar.com>

improve VC handling of old buildslaves, sometimes refuse to build

	* buildbot/process/step.py (CVS.startVC): refuse to build
	update/copy -style builds on a non-default branch with an old
	buildslave (<=0.6.6) that doesn't know how to do it properly. The
	concern is that it will do a VC 'update' in an existing tree when
	it is supposed to be switching branches (and therefore clobbering
	the tree to do a full checkout), thus building the wrong source.
	This used to be a warning, but I think the confusion it is likely
	to cause warrants making it an error.
	(SVN.startVC): same, also make mode=export on old slaves an error
	(Darcs.startVC): same
	(Git.startVC): improve error message for non-Git-enabled slaves
	(Arch.checkSlaveVersion): same. continue to emit a warning when a
	specific revision is built on a slave that doesn't pay attention
	to args['revision'], because for slowly-changing trees it will
	probably do the right thing, and because we have no way to tell
	whether we're asking it to build the most recent version or not.
	* buildbot/interfaces.py (BuildSlaveTooOldError): new exception

	* buildbot/scripts/runner.py (SlaveOptions.postOptions): assert
	that 'master' is in host:portnum format, to catch errors sooner
