Bug Description

We'd like to have an option to automatically trigger snap builds when the top-level branch changes. Evan asked for this in connection with the Jenkins snap, but it's come up before as well. At the moment the best we can offer is that people can automate this externally using the API, which isn't nothing, but it's a wart if we want to be able to give upstream developers something very easy to manage.

The reason I didn't include auto-build support initially was that it was prohibitively difficult to tell when any of the components that go into a snap have changed, and this is still true. But we probably shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good here; we can always extend it later.
