epriestley a763f9510e Add some Drydock documentation plus "Test Configuration" for repository automation
Summary:
Ref T182. Ref T9252.

  - Adds a "Test" repository operation that just runs `git status` to see if things work.
  - Adds a button for it in Edit Repository.
  - Shows operation status on the operation detail view to make this workflow work a little better.
  - Adds a lot of words. Words words words words.

Test Plan:
  - Tested repository operation.
  - Read words.

Guide to getting Drydock
Quick Start: Land Revisions
===========================
Quick start guide to getting "Land Revision" working in Differential. For
a more detailed guide, see @{article:Drydock User Guide: Repository Automation}.
Choose a repository you want to enable "Land Revision" for. We'll call this
**Repository X**.
You need to configure a staging area for this repository if you haven't
already. You can do this in Diffusion in {nav Edit Repository > Edit Staging}.
We'll call this **Staging Area Y**.
Choose or create a host you want to run merges on. We'll call this
`automation001`. For example, you might bring up a new host in EC2 and
label it `automation001.mycompany.com`. You can use an existing host if you
prefer.
Create a user account on the host, or choose an existing user account. This is
the user that merges will execute under: Drydock will connect to it and run a
bunch of `git` commands, then ultimately run `git push`. We'll call this user
`builder`.
Install `git`, `hg` or `svn` if you haven't already and set up private keys
for `builder` so it can pull and push any repositories you want to operate
on.
If your repository and/or staging area are hosted in Phabricator, you may want
to create a corresponding bot account so you can add keys and give it
permissions.
At this point you should be able to `ssh builder@automation001` to connect to
the host, and get a normal shell. You should be able to `git clone ...` from
**Repository X** and from **Staging Area Y**, and `git push` to **Repository
X**. If you can't, configure things so you can.
Now, create a host blueprint for the host. You can find a more detailed
walkthrough in @{article:Drydock Blueprints: Hosts}. Briefly:
- Create an Almanac device for the host. This should have the IP address and
port for your host.
- Create an Almanac service bound to the device. This should be a Drydock
resource pool service and have a binding to the IP from the previous step.
- Create a Drydock host blueprint which uses the service from the previous
step. It should be configured with an SSH private key that can be used
to connect to `builder@automation001`.
Then, create a new working copy blueprint which uses the host blueprint you
just made. You can find a more detailed walkthrough in @{article:Drydock
Blueprints: Working Copies}. Authorize the working copy blueprint to use the
host blueprint.
Finally, configure repository automation for **Repository X**:
{nav Edit Repository > Edit Automation}. Provide the working copy blueprint
from the previous step. Authorize the repository to use the working copy
blueprint.
After you save changes, click {nav Test Configuration} to test that things
are working properly.
The "Land Revision" action should now be available on revisions for this
repository.
