[JIRA] [accurev] (JENKINS-10209) AccuRev plugin should work around accurev's "spontaneous logout" behaviour

FYI, there was "minimise login" behavior added by JENKINS-8935, which was incorporated in 0.6.15 a long time ago, well before 0.6.27, but this issue isn't the same as that issue.
i.e. the plugin checked (using accurev info) whether or not the user is logged in, and then only logged in if the user isn't logged in already.

However, that algorithm doesn't address this issue (which is why this issue was raised separately).

This issue is all about the way the accurev server can spontaneously log you out in between accurev client commands - doing a pre-emptive "if accurev info says you're not logged in, then log in" at the start isn't enough - one needs to trap the "you're not logged in" errors from every accurev command that is done.

e.g. if the sequence is as follows:

accurev info
  if not logged in, log in
accurev show ... streams
accurev mksnap ...
accurev pop ...

then the code needs to check that the "accurev show", "accurev mksnap" and "accurev pop" commands didn't complain that the user wasn't logged in (and then login and re-issue the command if that's the case), as the login that was checked for right at the start can spontaneously expire at any point.
