[Toaster] Toaster, buildstats and build history

[Barros Pena, Belen]

There seems to be a fair bit of work going on in build history, and also I
think in builstats. Toaster uses both, so I wonder:

1. Will the changes affect Toaster in any way?
2. Is any of the additions to build history providing extra information
that we should display in Toaster?

Cheers

Belén
