I'd like to apply the following which does:
- Adds a script I wrote for reading a timestamp from a file on disk
and alerting if the timestamp within it is NOT within a particular
delta to now.
- Applies this to sundries01 and uses it to check
/srv/websites/getfedora.org/build.timestamp.txt which now gets
generated as part of the websites build.

The purpose is because sometimes someone will commit something to the
websites repo which breaks the build, but because of how we have
things set up in openshift (cronjob), we don't get any kind of alert
when that happens.

Right now this sets the delta to 3 hours. In theory it should be 1,
but I figure let it try to build a few times before we start alerting.

    nagios: Add script and check for checking that a timestamp within
a file is within a delta of now, and then use this for alerting when
websites stop building
