This commit fixes combination of resources containing lists.
For lists containing complex types, it has been decided to handle them
as sorted list, where position in list matters. In this case, combine is
called recursively for each element in dest and src sharing position in
the list, and assumes that if one list is shorter than the other, then
it has to be combined against empty set for that tye.
For instance this is useful when defining trx_list properties, where a
BTS can have a different amount of TRX but we may be interested in
restricting the first TRX and don't care about extra TRX.
For lists containing simple types (eg. integers or strings), we just want
to merge both lists and we only need to check if the value is already there,
ie. handle them as unsortered sets. This case won't work if we call combine
for each element of the list because for a simple case it will just end up
checking if a[i] == b[i].
This kind of operation for simple types is needed in later commits where
cipher attribute is introduced. Without this patch, having following 2
scenarios and trying them to use together "-s foosuite:cipher-a50+ciphera51"
will fail:
cipher_a50.conf:
bts:
- ciphers:
- 'a5 0'
cipher_a51.conf
bts:
- ciphers:
- 'a5 1'
ValueError: cannot combine dicts, conflicting items (values 'a5 0' and 'a5 1')

With the recent fix of the junit report related issues, another issue arose:
the 'with log.Origin' was changed to disallow __enter__ing an object twice to
fix problems, now still code would fail because it tries to do 'with' on the
same object twice. The only reason is to ensure that logging is associated with
a given object. Instead of complicating even more, implement differently.
Refactor logging to simplify use: drop the 'with Origin' style completely, and
instead use the python stack to determine which objects are created by which,
and which object to associate a log statement with.
The new way: we rely on the convention that each class instance has a local
'self' referencing the object instance. If we need to find an origin as a new
object's parent, or to associate a log message with, we traverse each stack
frame, fetching the first local 'self' object that is a log.Origin class
instance.
How to use:
Simply call log.log() anywhere, and it finds an Origin object to log for, from
the stack. Alternatively call self.log() for any Origin() object to skip the
lookup.
Create classes as child class of log.Origin and make sure to call
super().__init__(category, name). This constructor will magically find a parent
Origin on the stack.
When an exception happens, we first escalate the exception up through call
scopes to where ever it is handled by log.log_exn(). This then finds an Origin
object in the traceback's stack frames, no need to nest in 'with' scopes.
Hence the 'with log.Origin' now "happens implicitly", we can write pure natural
python code, no more hassles with scope ordering.
Furthermore, any frame can place additional logging information in a frame by
calling log.ctx(). This is automatically inserted in the ancestry associated
with a log statement / exception.
