[gdal-dev] ubuntu_1804

[Craig de Stigter]

I didnt write it but I had to fiddle with the build scripts quite a bit for
the  pytest refactor. Travis only supports Trusty (recently added Xenial,
though I don't think GDAL is using that yet either.)

The ubuntu_1804 job builds an entire Ubuntu 18.04 install in a chroot
(using debootstrap) inside the travis Trusty environment. It's not terribly
elegant but gets the job done. So the kernel is the travis trusty kernel
but the userland is ubuntu 18.04.

Hope that clarifies things.
