Make the builder failure tolerance threshold configurable through a feature

0-or-missing for simplicity I think.That way you don't need any hard
coded default.

Well, I'd rather default to the hard-coded figure so that it DTRT with no
feature configuration needed. I thought the point of the feature config was
to tweak the defaults.

Its to let us do things dynamically and in a relaxed fashion without
needing lockstep code + config changes.

The main reason I was saying no default was so the code could be a
little simpler, but its going to be pretty much a wash.

I doubt our getting the right value out of the gates though :)

Anyhow, all variations are fine.

I'm quite confident of the default actually - once this other problem is
sorted (which I'll land a work around for tomorrow) we'll see a heck of lot
more stability anyway and given my observations of the logs files over the
last 2 or 3 years when a builder goes bong, it goes bong big stylee.

Fixed in stable r11986 <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~launchpad-pqm/launchpad/stable/revision/11986>.

Hello? QA bot?

Low priority now, the latest fixes to avoid timeouts are working well.

Hi Julian, the bot should or shouldn't have touched this bug? Revno
11986 has this bug number on its branch nick:
timeouts-feature-bug-681426. Is that wrong somehow?

Yeah I was confused because I hadn't linked the branch - then I realised that
I'd stupidly put the wrong bug number on the branch nick!

I think that it might be better to let people explicitly link branches but
that's just me. Worth asking around?

Thanks!
