Event Script plugin

[tokejepsen]

This is an event plugin that executes a script specified in the job parameters.

Thanks for this contribution! A couple small things...

1. Please fix the CI checks that failed.
2. Please add a README.md that describes the script and how it is used,

[tokejepsen]

Why did it fail on the print statement? Is the CI on python 3?

[jamesthinkbox]

Our CI checks against both Python 2.7 and 3. In Python 3, the content of a print statement must be enclosed in parentheses. Parentheses are backwards compatible to 2.x, so should work for both.

That should do it :)

Thanks! I'm going to merge this now.

I do have a couple of recommendations for improvements: After retrieving the script's path from the ExtraInfo, run a path mapping on it to convert it to the Slave's current platform (so that the script works cross-platform). After doing the path mapping, confirm that the script file is reachable from the Slave before calling execfile().

All good suggestions :) Unfortunately I can't test that currently, so maybe it should be in an issue?

Understood. I've created #39 to keep track of it. Thanks again for this nice addition.
