Functional.LTP issues in 'raw' format

Here is a list of bugs with Functional.LTP:

= bugs =
 * ltp_process.py can't import Borders (raises python exception)
   * this program is supposed to produce a spreadsheet containing test results
   * it used to run OK, but doesn't at all now
     * it may have been a problem switching from jessie to stretch
       * did python openpyxl module massively change from jessie to stretch
   * first problem was exception with: from openpyxl.style import ...
     * sub-module is names 'styles' (with an 's')
   * second problem is that module now can't import 'Borders'
     * I'm not sure how to correct it
       * my guess is the openpyxl changed APIs sometime in the last 3 years
         * See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24917201/applying-borders-to-a-cell-in-openpyxl for how to work with Borders and Sides
         * also: https://realpython.com/openpyxl-excel-spreadsheets-python/#adding-styles
       * What is now "Side" used to be "Borders"?
 * when test aborts due to a timeout, there is no log
   * should use grab-as-you-go logging instead? (report_live?)
   * LTP doesn't use the normal Fuego logging system anyway
     * it gathers stuff into a bunch of separate files on the target, and then grabs them and processes them on the host as a separate operation
       * this doesn't interact with Fuego timeout very well
 * multiple items on a single line in the skiplist file don't get processed
   * see line in runltp that processes skiplist
     * ``for test_name in $(awk '{print $1}' "${SKIPFILE}"); do``

 * LTP requires awk on the target
   * runltp uses awk a LOT, to process skiplist and other lists
 * ftc gen-report shows tguid:result as None when FAIL is in the run.json file
   * ftc gen-report --where
   * may have to do with test (scenario file name) including a '.'
     * "net.features" adds an extra period to the tguid
       * tguid is "net.features.dccp01"

 * skipped tests are considered a PASS
   * if test is in a skiplist, it's command is replaced with "exit 32;" in the alltests file passed to ltp-pan
   * it's also listed as "termination_id=32" in the output log
   * there are no individual testcases to parse in the test output file, so the Fuego parser has nothing to report.


= problems =
 * shows issues for all boards on an individual board's job page
   * ie bbb results are shown on min1.default.Functional.LTP job page
 * takes too long to calculate skiplist
 * can't tell what testcase is executing
   * with old system, Jenkins console log is completely silent during a
     whole scenario file full of tests
   * with new system, you only see the machine summary line of the tests that
     have already completed

= desired features =
 * list reason for skip in user interface
 * ability to click through web interface to see problem
