For GitLab we create our own GRUB binaries. Use them for Travis CI too.

Hello Tom,
with this patch every single of the 78 sub-job will pull our Docker image resulting in 78 times 2GB traffic and 78 times 3 min for pulling the image.
This cannot be the right way to do it. I think it would be preferable to copy our GRUB images only. Can't we have a repository on gitlab.denx.de where we put all Travis CI binary dependencies:
- GRUB images
- QEMU images
- cross compilers
I was hoping that we could tell Travis to just fully use our Docker images. Looking at https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/build-stages/share-docker-image/ maybe we can just restrict the Docker pull to the test.py stages that use GRUB for tests? And then as part of a move to Xenial we could also copy out QEMU.
