Bootstrap tag: Setup before starting:

Updated /builds/buildbot/Automation/buildbot-configs on production-1.8-master.
- master.cfg is "Locally Modified" to contain passwords. Identical to repository version otherwise.
- Turned off the nightly builders on production-1.8-master to make sure they don't interfere with the release. (We need to figure out how to avoid this in the future).
- update mozilla1.8 tinderbox to say "no nightlies right now"
- Ran 'buildbot reconfig'
update /builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox to the Bootstrap tag (need to revert this before restarting nightlies)
