Continuous integration in Kotlin

This is an attempt to replace my current Jenkins setup - this is an experiment and not (yet or perhaps even ever) intended to be used by others. Some goals of this endeavour:

• Publish reports (tests,lint,logs,..) & artifacts (apks,aar,jar,..) to content addressable storage IPFS (perhaps later on also ethereum's swarm)
• Link to the results via content-hash as github status updates on the commits
• Github-webhook with little attack surface (currently I am hesitant to expose jenkins to the internet and so constantly run into github quota issues as I am polling)
• Act as Github integration: https://developer.github.com/early-access/integrations
• Abort build by dereferencing the commit (e.g. via force-push)
• Backfilling (build more flavors and commits between pushes when idle e.g. sleeping)
• Intelligent stage ordering (e.g. if there is a lint-failure - the lint stage is next when backfilling or user push)
• API for status-monitoring
• Create artifacts for tags
• Uninstalling the apps before running UI-tests
• (very far away) Use truebit and reproducable builds for verification (check if build-servers are producing the correct output or are e.g. compromized)
