jenkins PR failure in `git fetch`: delete workspace before build starts?

Hi all,

Our brooklyn-ui PR builds (e.g. [1]) were failing with the same error as 
is given in INFRA-17055 [2].

```
Caused by: hudson.plugins.git.GitException: Command "git fetch --tags 
--progress git://github.com/apache/brooklyn-ui.git 
+refs/pull/*:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*" returned status code 128:
stdout:
stderr: error: Could not read 0f7365b818627ae0fa4c1cdf0fb6a65062d23968
```

I've therefore applied the same fix as described in INFRA-17055: enabled 
'Delete workspace before build starts'.

And I've kicked off my PR build again for [3].

---
Longer term, I think it makes sense to delete the workspace for PR 
builds, because PRs could vary massively. If this works for brooklyn-ui, 
is it sensible to roll that change across all the other PR build 
configurations as well?

(I think I've seen that error a few times - I'd previously put it down 
to bad networks, interrupted during git fetch.)
