Description of the change

This is prototype of new build system independent interface for publishing build artifacts, implement to address capacity problems on androdi-build.

When reviewing this, please keep in mind following:

1. This is a prototype, so there're lots to improve.
2. This is critical fix for android-build, in strong need for Android team, which needs to deliver RC by the end of week. So, this rather be deployed today.

Otherwise, this implements publishing API abstracted to a single script (from client's point of view). Underlyingly, it uses the same restricted SFTP publishing infrastructure as was used previously, just more efficiently (build time down to ~4min from 20+min).

Suggested direction of review: security side of things.
