These patches try to improve our Travis CI usage (quite a few failures the last days). This series include Peter's "Automate coverity scan uploads via Travis" patches (https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg457443.html).
Patch 1 is a no-op as of today, but if eventually Shippable improve their hardware the builds will profit of it directly. Patch 2 allow to check how many time is spent building the codebase versus running the tests. Patch 4/5 speed up a bit Travis building many test objects in parallel (using all available cores) previous to run the tests sequentially (as before) so the tests output don't get mixed. Patch 6 use 'travis_retry' feature to avoid aborting a job on network failure retrying 3 times (default). Then are Peter patches improving Coverity. Regards, Phil.
