Add tox.ini and few checker scripts

The plan is to change csit-validate-pylint-master job
to fail if (and only if) tox fails.

This will allow us to easily add checks,
with or without the voting power.

Each check produces log (ignored in .gitignore)
the voting job can archive.

+ Made autogen quiet by default, to avoid spam in autogen checker.
+ Unified the way direct csit subdirectories are git-ignored.

+This directory contains checker scripts and other files they need.
+Each checker script is assumed to be run from tox,
+when working directory is set to ${CSIT_DIR}.
+Each script should:
++ Return nonzero exit code when it fails.
+++ The tox might ignore the code when the check is not blocking.
++ Write less verbose output to stderr.
++ Write (to stderr) PASSED or FAILED to help with debugging.
++ Direct more verbose output to appropriately named .log file.
++ Only the output suitable for automated processing by an external caller
+  should be written to stdout.
+++ The level of "less verbose" depends on check and state of codebase.
++ TODO: Should we carefully document which files are
+  whitelisted/blacklisted for a particulat check?
