Created the URL for the exact step logs page.

Even thought the changes in BuildbotTesterQueueView.js are not mandatory for this to work, it is still good to have those changes to handle any unexpected scenario.

Maybe a better name for this would be stdioURLForStep as this function returns the URL to the stdio page for the step.

I suggest we add a FIXME comment above this line to explain that Buildbot 0.9 should provide this URL in the JSON output for the step as it does in Buildbot versions less than 0.9. Even better we should file a Buildbot bug (if one does not already exist) and reference it in this comment.

I suggest we revert this change.

Ditto.

Please explain that this fix is a workaround for a Buildbot 0.9 bug where it does not provide a URL to stdio for a build step. Mention that Buildbot versions less than 0.9 always include a URL to the stdio of the step.
