Adds a local Autoupdate server and a mechanism for adding developer packages.

I've been getting frustrated by juggling usb sticks to constantly update my netbook so I wrote a simple
server that can run in a developer's source tree and serve updates to a netbook. I also added an upstart
task that will download a script from the dev server and run it. I use this to install sshfs, gdb, and vim.

Here's a quick heads up about what has changed. 

1. /etc/lsb-release

I added two new fields to the release file. One is the URL that should be pinged for updates. The other is the URL that can be used to download a developer setup script. 

2. chromeos_version.sh

The functionality for the release build is unchanged, however, developer builds now have a monotonically increasing version number. 

3. software-update.conf

Autoupdate is disabled when the DEV_SERVER field in /etc/lsb-release is initialized. This field won't be set on the build server, but will be set everywhere else. 

4. ping_omaha.sh

The omaha server is now configured by /etc/lsb-release
