Autotest Directory Layout

By default, the top level directory is called /usr/local/autotest though there's nothing magic about this.

README - instructions
bin/ - binaries
control/ - sample control files
results/ - results
tests/ - test modules
tmp/ - temporary working area
mnt/ - temporary mount point for filesystems testing
control - the currently executing control file

Tests may write into the following areas (maybe all ought to be under one, so we can chroot jail them?):

a subdir under tmp/ (self.tmpdir)
a subdir under results/ (self.resultsdir)
a src/ subdir under tests/<thistest> (self.srcdir)

THEY MAY TOUCH NOTHING ELSE
