jenkinsfile: create venv in special folder instead of jenkins workspace The path to a jenkins workspace tends to get very long. But the maximum for a shebang line is usually 127 characters. This can cause problems with git hook scripts or when calling pip. To avoid these problems create the virtualenv in the a folder under $JENKINS_HOME which is usually much shorter.
