Until now, MultiTestDB would prefix the names of test databases it
creates with the local user name as determined by looking at the
environment variables: LOGNAME and USER, in the order as written here.
There are the following problems with this approach:
 - it leaks local user names to the database system and by extension to
   everyone who can access them,
 - in the event of said local user names being different from farm ones
   it makes it more difficult to identify to whom a specific database
   belongs.
To address these issues the present commit introduces a new environment
variable called ENSEMBL_TESTDB_PREFIX which when defined takes
precedence over LOGNAME. Now anyone running tests on their local machine
can set that variable to their farm user name.

Modify script to create collection databases for testing.

Enable the script to create collection databases for testing. The code already iterates over multiple species in a single json config file, so just need to note when the first one is done, then avoid doing db creation and 'global' table population on subsequent iterations.

Master

[ENSCORESW-2343]. Bug as we want the total number of seconds represented by the timedelta structure.

CI and dependent builds enabled.

[ENSCORESW-2343]. Trigger only core build, one tested in enough for the test api. Notify to core channel in genomes-ebi.

Use Travis CI Build stages (new feature) to trigger dependent builds only after build matrix has succeeded.
