Porting hardware testing tool to snappy Ubuntu core

[Zygmunt Krynicki]

Thanks for the replies everyone!

So looking at something I can use in the next few days, rather than
weeks, I see that I should:
- disable confinement for the snap (to experiment with what is available)
- use deb2snap for things we are likely to bundle (everything that
won't become a framework later)
- just assume python3 is there for now
If anything above is incorrect please correct me.

As for frameworks (pulse/udisks) I understand that schedule is not the
easiest thing to ask about so I'll defer that until it becomes
necessary to know.

Thanks
ZK
