BREAK: manual.yaml: don't set any default env vars

Remove the 'MAKEFLAGS' and 'V' defaults.

Now that there is a specialised 'make' element, these make-specific
defaults don't make sense here. This element is meant to be a blank
slate for folks to build on.

Note that this is a breaking change, that will require some users to
make changes to their .bst files if they are expecting these environment
variable to be set.

_versions.py: BST_FORMAT_VERSION bumped to 18.

This fixes issue #718

_yaml.py: Implement `get()` for `ChainMap`

Since the core Python `ChainMap.get()` implements with:

    self[key] if key in self else default

The double-chain-lookup is expensive.  This simple change solves that
for our ChainMap derived structure.  As such it improves matters
for #466 somewhat.

Move bwrap checks in platform/linux.py

Remove the bwraps checks from _site.py and put them in platform.linux
which is the only place where they are run.

conftest.py: Ensure platform is not maintained between tests

This removes the `_instance` on the platform object that we use
for caching and not recreating the object everytime at the start
of every test.

This is to ensure our tests share the least amount of state.

The performance penalty is from 5 to 10% accross the whole test suite.
The readings were done 5 times for each before and after the change
and on the same computer.

contributing: WIP again to be kind to reviewers

As someone coming from GitHub to GitLab, I was pleasantly surprised by
the 'filter by WIP status' option.

To make sure we get the most out of it, add a guideline to keep the
filter clean, to reduce reviewer burden.

contributing: non-WIP should always be landable

I was recently surprised that we don't prefer addressing review comments
in 'fixup!' commits.

Coming from GitHub, I've found that fixup commits make it easier for
reviewers to see what has changed since their last review. The idea is
to use '--autosquash' before landing to clean up the history again.

It's a pleasant surprise that it's easy to keep track of what changed in
merge-requests between pushes, so we can always keep the history clean.

Document this, so folks like me can see the light sooner.

contributing: emphasise the 'why' in commits

Explain why it's useful to mention the decisions made for a change and
provide links for background, e.g. issue numbers.

My general experience of git histories is that folks don't do enough
explaining, so it's great we have a contributing section for it.

I've found it's easier for folks to stick to rules when they know the
practical reasons for them, so provide some.

Don't pull artifact build trees by default.

The addition of cached build trees being included in element
artifacts has led to mostly redundant download overheads when
pulling from a remote artifact server. As such the default behaviour
of pull shouldn't fetch the build tree object if available.

element.py: extend relevant pull logic for specified subdir
consideration and ensure push logic does not lead to partial
artifact pushes. Change assumption that the buildtree can be
extracted if artifact is cached. __cached_buildtree() and
__pull_directories() helpers added.

_artifactcache/: artifactcache.py & cascache.py inclusion of
helper functions for subdir artifact checking & fetching, fetch
logic extended to only pull required artifact directories.
extract & checkout updated to handle full/partial operation.

tests/: addition of integration test pullbuildtrees.py,
buildtrees.py adapted cli options, testutils/artifactshare.py
has_artifact changed to return artifact digest on true condition.

buildstream/_pipeline.py: Simplify error message for assert_consistent()

Currently, `Pipeline.assert_consistent()` prints an error message like
the one below when certain elements have inconsistent sources:

```
...
      Element: hello.bst is inconsistent
        Source tar source at hello.bst [line 16 column 2] is missing ref
...
```

Drop the word "Source" from the beginning of the message as
"Source <source-kind> source ..." is kind of awkward to read.

Don't cache sandbox errors

Sandbox errors (like missing host tools) are dependent on the host
system and rarely on what is actually done.

It is therefore better to not cache them as they are subject to
change between two runs.

Also add test to ensure sandbox failure are not cached

element.py: Only cache on element error or success

Reverse the way we were handling caching by only caching
when we know it's a problem with the build or the build is a
success in order not to cache transient errors.

CasBasedDirectory: Change constructor to take a CASCache instead of a Context

The Context was only used to obtain a reference to the CASCache
and set the unused cas_directory field.

tests/testutils/artifactshare.py: Do not create a fake context

The fake context did not set the cache quota, triggering an error. With
CASCache now separate from ArtifactCache, we can instantiate a CASCache
without context.

_context: allow 'terminate' for scheduler.on-error

Enable this option of 'terminate', which is mentioned in userconfig.yaml
and handled in _frontend/app.py:_handle_failure(). It appears to have
been left out of the valid_actions as an oversight.

Originally introduced in

_context: refactor, extract _node_get_option_str

Use a new helper function to simplify working with nodes that can only
accept certain strings. This will be used when adding the prompt.*
config options.

In later work we can see if this function would be useful elsewhere, and
could be added to '_yaml.py'.

Add prompt.auto-init buildstream.conf option

Provide an option in buildstream.conf to disable the 'Would you like to
...' prompt when we cannot resolve a project.

Some users prefer not to be interrupted by such prompts, so pave the way
to creating options to disable all those that might get in the way.

Follow the example of the advice.* options 'git-config', and create a
namespace for these UI options grouped by behaviour, rather than an
over-reaching 'ui.*' namespace. In later work perhaps we'll also add
'advice.*' options.

Add a NEWS item for this.
