Setup golden DB in merge-ci about devspace HOT 1 OPEN

Added some notes capturing how this feature had been implemented in ci.openmicroscopy.org a few years back with @pwalczysko.

Minimally, this implementation can be seen as an extension of the PURGE_DATA option in devspace 0.11.0 as:

In addition to these comamnds purging the database and the binary repository, a subsequent step is to restore an existing reference DB + binary repo. There are a few assumptions here:

• the database and the binary repo need to be available from the Jenkins environment

• the golden DB to be created in a systematic way (pg_dump format, disk layout)

• enough space need to be provisioned esp. for large valuable DBs. By default, the data directory is in the same place as the devspace clone.

  	<hudson.model.StringParameterDefinition>
  	<name>DATA_DIR</name>
  	<description>Default is $HOME/omero-server-data</description>
  	<defaultValue>$HOME/omero-server-data</defaultValue>
  	</hudson.model.StringParameterDefinition>

  Minimally, this variable would need to be overriden or the path on disk symlinked to a larger volume with appropriate write permissions.
