Initial import of MultiRIOTCtrl

[miri64]

This allows to access multiple RIOTCtrl objects in a mapping-like manner:

>>> ctrl = MultiRIOTCtrl({'a': riotctrl.ctrl.RIOTCtrl(env={'BOARD': 'A'}),
...                       'b': riotctrl.ctrl.RIOTCtrl(env={'BOARD': 'B'})})
>>> ctrl.board()
{'a': 'A', 'b': 'B'}
>>> ctrl['a','b'].board()
{'a': 'A', 'b': 'B'}
>>> ctrl['a'].board()
'A'

The current base classes just iterate over the provided RIOTCtrls but the actual use case I am planning to use this for is to provide wrappers for

• nodes with the same application to only compile the application once, and
• iotlabcli + serial_aggregator.

Is this something that would allow easy integration into your iotlab_controller?

There are still some more ways to go for "easy" integration (such as serial_aggregator/tmux) support of ShellInteraction (or an extension / sibling of that), but in general, yes: this would simplify integration into iotlab_controller :-)
