[Fuego] ftc add-nodes fails

Welcome!

If you find the time could you try if you could reproduce the issue I
was having?
Running "./install.sh && ./start.sh" (without a proxy) and then "ftc
add-nodes -b bbb" in the container should trigger it.
I'd really like to see I am not the only one having this problem.

Maybe then the fix could also go onto the next or even master branch.

Regarding what you said about Jenkins ... I hear you! I actually started
looking into updating Jenkins
and its plugins but I think I need to understand Fuego and its use of the
plugins better.
But in the long run maintaining a stable Jenkins is a job of its own. Which
makes me think about ways to
have a clean "seam" between Fuego and Jenkins. Maybe by having a
scheduling/test execution API
that is implemented in ftc and in another daemon that would then talk to
Jenkins or other CI systems.

But for now ... I think I have to go back to actually using Fuego before I
start thinking about how to refactor it.

Best,

Lazlo
