[Buildbot-devel] Pass information from Trigger step to another

[Marc-Antoine Ruel]

http://docs.buildbot.net/latest/manual/cfg-schedulers.html#triggerable-scheduler
Triggerable supports static properties.

http://docs.buildbot.net/latest/manual/cfg-buildsteps.html?highlight=trigger%20trigger#triggering-schedulers
trigger.Trigger supports adding dynamic properties with *set_properties*.
You create the build properties needed on the triggered build at Trigger
time.
