This comes up every now and then on IRC but we should just get rid of core/non-core separation. People misuse it to think it's okay to turn non-core bots red and some people don't even pay attention to core bots. Also, many core bots have been red for months and nobody has took time to fix it. And having to modify master configuration to move a bot from core to non-core is too annoying. Instead, we should just categorize bots per ports (Mac, Windows, GTK, Qt, Chromium, and others) since people care about their own ports' bots and they tend to ping patch authors/reviewers to have them fix new failures.

I'll remove the remaining references to core/non-core concepts in webkitpy in a follow up patch.
