report: safely update the result.xml file
After every single test, we rewrite result.xml from scratch. This
ensures that the XML file is always in a valid, parseable state, even
if the check script is killed or the machine crashes in the middle of
a test.
If the test is being run in a Cloud VM as a "spot" (Amazon, Azure, or
GCE) or "preemptible" (Oracle) instance, the VM can be halted whenever
the Cloud provider needs the capacity for customers who are willing to
pay full price. ("Spot" instances can be 60% to 90% cheaper ---
allowing the frugal kernel developer to get up to 10 times more
testing for the same amount of money. :-)
Since a "spot" VM can get terminated at any time, it is possible for
the check script to be killed while it is in the middle of rewriting
the result.xml file. If the result.xml file is only partially
written, information regarding the tests run before VM termination
will be lost.
To address this race, write the new result.xml file as result.xml.new,
and only rename it to result.xml after the XML file is fully written
out.
