769044 - add --repository arg to talos to avoid referencing application.ini

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: Talos, defect)

Description

in order to remove our dependency on application.ini, we need to add a --repository argument to talos.

Now running with something like this:
python remotePerfConfigurator.py -v -e org.mozilla.fennec --develop -a ts --output ts.yml --remoteDevice 192.168.1.69 --sourcestamp 31415926 --repository http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central

we can avoid the pains of application.ini (and remoteapp.ini for mobile).  This should be the gold standard for mozharness scripts if possible.

+    if browser_config.get('repository', 'NULL') == 'NULL':

Beh, good catch.  Looking at the code path, we should never actually have the 'NULL' case in practice
