Subject: [PATCH] system tests

* Partially addresses https://github.com/cylc/cylc-admin/issues/33
* Add a nightly build which installs the Cylc components for each
  supported Python version. This will help to detect metadata,
  dependency and branch conflict issues.
* Future work can add end-to-end tests which engage all of the system
  components.
