            Bug ID: 253537
           Summary: [buildbot] Move SFTP upload code from generate-bundle
                    script to a new script for uploads and document it
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests

The current way we are uploading the built-products from the workers to the master is really slow and is causing problems (see bug 252864).

On the GTK/WPE Packaging bots, on the step `generate-bundle` we upload the bundle created via SFTP to the production server. See: https://build.webkit.org/#/builders/30

The SSH server accepting the uploads is configured in a restricted way: the clients connecting to it are only allowed to run the `sftp-internal` command and are restricted inside a chroot so they can only modify their own files.

As an extra security measure the server can be configured to move the files that the bots upload out of that directory as soon as the upload is finished.

After talking with Aakash we agreed that it would be a good idea if I can factorize this code out of this script and make it useful also for uploading the built-products to the post-commit and EWS servers

Let's try it.
