There's not supposed to be for production flights.

But that database table is updated (when using
Osstest::JobDB::Executive) by dbfl_check, which is called numerous
times including from tsreadconfig(), at the start of each ts-* script.

To avoid having to record lies in the database when running tests by
hand etc., the database table (flights_harness_touched) can record
multiple versions of osstest.git which have touched the flight.  ("+"
is appended if the working tree is dirty.)

It's obviously better that sg-report-flight should report such
situations accurately, even if they are abnormal.

Ian.
