Description

At the moment BenchExec is used to restrict computational resources consumption by third-party tools that can behave abnormally. Just CIL is restricted from Core with BenchExec.

I suppose to use more simple solution, namely Python module resource, that is already used to calculate computational resources consumption by Core and its components.

It also kills Cil and CIF if they use too much resources, so it is not a good idea to replace it.

It is used just for CIL.

As it seems to be critical at verifying new kernels lets do it a bit earlier.

I have implemented it in the branch rm-fix, so after testing I hope it will be soon resolved.

All works as expected. The branch also contains backported fixes to avoid jobs corruption.

I merged the branch to master in 561ccab. So, we will not have these tricky issues from nested BenchExec (I am not sure that it was developed in this way ever).
