add (potentially optional) trybots that mirror every builder on the main waterfalls

Project Member Reported by dpranke@chromium.org, Jan 19 2017

Issue description

We should have trybots for every builder that is on one of the main waterfalls. The trybots should usually be in the CQ, but some of the main waterfall bots may be too expensive to put in the CQ (e.g., running debug tests). We should have optional bots for those.

"main waterfalls" == master.chromium.{android,linux,mac,memory,win,webkit}.

I suspect these would get out of sync again immediately. How urgently do we need this? I feel like we could do this cleaner without buildbot by having a pool that does both waterfall and try builds, maybe with the recipe taking a revision (or head) vs a patch for waterfall vs try modes.
Are you concerned that an individual trybot gets out of sync w/ an individual waterfall builder? That can't really happen w/ the chromium recipes.

Or, are you concerned that the lists get out of sync? I think we kinda already have checks for this and we can certainly add more.

It's possible that it's easier to do this in a non-buildbot world, of course, since luci solves all problems :). It's also a basically manual operational task to do this now and it is a real-world need (we're already supposed to be providing this and devs get frustrated when we don't have matching tryservers).

That said, I think P2 is the right priority for this. I won't be crushed if we don't get to this soon, but it would be good if we did.
Ok, where are the existing checks? It's the lists getting out of sync that I worry about.

My understanding is issue 709214 was intended to be a subset of this.

I could also see how it's just a duplicate.

Yes, 7092114 is a duplicate of this. Since that bug has a list, I'll close this one.

695105 is more dependent on this bug.
