CDash currently maintains two separate types of build errors: "build errors", which are scraped from the log, and "build failures" which are collected by launchers. Needing (almost) duplicate logic to handle these two cases is a major pain point throughout the codebase. This commit begins the process of merging errors and failures into a single table by migrating the precontext, text, and postcontext columns of the builderror table to a stdoutput column which contains precontext+text+postcontext, and a stderror column which contains just the error text.
