New description:

 We have upgrade tests for several previous versions, and need to add them
 for these two versions.

 The task is this:
  * set up a test config of the old version
  * run a build or two
  * trim down the results and make a tarball
  * include that tarball in the source
  * use it from `master/buildbot/test/integration/test_upgrade.py`
  * make some worthwhile assertions about the resulting builds.

 This is a good chance both to set up a simple Buildbot install, and to
 have a look at how some of Buildbot's tests are written.
