524356 - Update build scripts that use the socketserver to fail gracefully

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Tamarin Graveyard :: Tools, defect)

Description

[Brent Baker]

There are a handful of scripts in the build system that use the socketserver on ASTEAM to log results. These scripts currently will block and die if the socketserver is down, and therefore fail the build.

These scripts should be updated to not fail if the socketserver is not available, but instead print out a warning that can be shown in the build system.

Known scripts:
- utils/sizereport.py
- test/performance/runtests.py

we may want to print the results message regardless of failure or not.  It is easy to manually add results to the socket server.  we should signal a warning on failure so we can see the orange indication the socket server failed.

- sizereport.py prints out the msg that would have been sent if there is a failure so it can be manually sent if needed
- updated both scripts to print out the 'buildbot_status: WARNINGS' so that it will appear as a warning in the build system
