I wanted some jobs to select the server side component based on a platform
label, so this patch will add a function that returns the platform_label of
the specified hostname.
Long term, I think it would be best to expose this as an attribute of the
AbstractSSHHost class, since it would then be very easy to access these
details and we wouldn't need to run any methods to grab them. I'm not
familiar enough yet with the code to understand how to best implement this,
so my work around is the attached patch.
