#1688: there should be some way to retry builds that fail in setupBuild without
submitting new Changes.

We hit an issue on a master recently where a reconfig failed part way
through and caused a bunch of our custom code to have bad references in
it. In turn, this caused a great number of builds to fail with a
setupBuild exception. Even when a setupBuild exception occurs for another
reason it really sucks that the builds never start and are never retried.
I think that Buildbot should either retry them automatically are make it a
lot easier to retry them.
Because the builds never started we wouldn't be able to make use of the
RETRY status to make this happen. I was chatting with Catlee about this
and he suggested that we might be able to accomplish this by running
newBuild() in a try/except block and resetting claimed_at/claimed_by if it
fails, possibly after waiting some period of time.
