Main changes in 2018.11 ===================

0eb0d3ed7 Set requirements for requests to avoid CVE - as announced previously python3-requests needs to be updated to protect against a CVE in that package. If installing 2018.11 on a Stretch system, ensure you have updated python3-requests to the version from stretch-backports.

f7bbf6a8 Visibility of worker status effects on device views- (improved in subsequent commits in this release). Indicate the status of the worker when displaying information about the device so that it is clear why the device is still Idle if there is a problem with the worker.

ac0097c4 Fix 500 when rendering device dict page - if the device dictionary is invalid.

0f7a7ec8 Prevent index out of range error and 97132e91 Extend 0f7a7ec8 to other command_output comparisons and 06203dfe Add a run_cmd helper to Action class - the Action run_command support had become complex and problematic. A new parsed_command has been added and a simpler run_cmd. In time, existing use of run_command will be phased out in preference for one of the two new commands. This should make it easier to spot why certain dispatcher commands failed. This was triggered by intermittent problems running simg2img and img2simg for AOSP.
