Cache artifacts with virtual directories instead of filesystem.

Jim MacArthur requested to merge jmac/cache_artifacts_with_vdir into master

Description

_cache_artifacts currently extracts the sandbox's virtual directory (which is often CAS-based) to a file system then creates a new CAS-based directory to send to the artifact cache. This changes it to do a direct CAS-to-CAS import, with a few parts still using filesystem (logs and metadata) being imported into that instead.

Changes proposed in this merge request:

  • Use virtual directories to compose the artifact.
  • Add get_size to the Virtual Directory API.
  • Correct a fault in CasBasedDirectory - make absolute symbolic links into relative ones on import.

This merge request, when approved, will close: #787 (closed)
