Changes from WebPageTest 17.08:
WebPageTest and wptagent now have "release" branches in github that will be updated any time a new release is made (making it easy to git clone/pull a stable release build).

- Fixes for multi-step test support

Agent (wptagent)

- Added support for testing Opera (full support on desktop and android, behaves like Chrome)
- Fixes for testing Chrome 63
- Fixes for testing Firefox 57
- Fixed User agent overriding in Chrome and Firefox
- Improvements to reliability of Lighthouse testing and error reporting

wptdriver (Legacy Desktop Testing)
wptdriver is deprecated and in mid-2018 will no longer be able to test Chrome. All testing should migrate to using wptagent.
