1280126 - Unify android hostutils

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: General, defect)

Description

[Geoff Brown [:gbrown]]

Android automation via mozharness uses a hostutils archive that is different, and in a different directory format, than the hostutils archive used by the android mach commands. Now taskcluster tests need hostutils also. 

Let's get them all using the same archive.

Attachment: use existing (mach) hostutils from tooltool for mozharness automation

This updates the Android 4.3 and Android x86 tests to get hostutils from tooltool instead of the talos-remote url. The tooltool hostutils archive is pre-existing and used by android mach commands, to provide hostutils for developer test environments.

Unfortunately, the tooltool hostutils is in a slightly different format from the talos-remote version:
 - no bin/xre sub-directories in the tooltool archive
 - the tooltool archive has a top-level host-utils-<version> directory
...so some changes were required for that.
