[Bug 1137763] [NEW] Add a way to collect test artifacts from the testbed

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Public bug reported:

Some tests generate test artifacts that must be available after the run.
This is the case for example of jUnit test results that are then
published to a third party tool.

This artifacts are created inside the testbed but not copied outside and
they are definitely lost because the testbed is destroyed after the run.

adt should provide either:
- a standard location to write test artifacts which would be copied outside of the testbed (in $OUTPUT-DIR for example)
- or a generic option to specify a directory or a list of files to copy from the testbed to the host at the end of the run.

** Affects: autopkgtest (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Add a way to collect test artifact from the testbed
+ Add a way to collect test artifacts from the testbed
