Due to the system providing a copy of gzip, we face some issues when we
'shadow' that copy with our own leading to a varient of race type bugs,
and issues for example if a dependency such as libz is missing but the
binary is still present. We usually rely on our dependency logic to protect
us from this but for gzip, we don't have this protection since its not listed
by all its users (and doing so would be impractical).
This patch installed pigz and gzip into their own directory which we only
add to PATH when we explictly want these binaries in much the same way we do
with perl-native. This means dependency logic is correct when we use the binary
and everything should work well.
The patch adds an explict dependency into image.bbclass since the accelerated
speed of compression is most appreciated at rootfs time.

[BUGID #281]
Evaluate and update each package in recipes-core to ensure they have a
consistent summary and description.

Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things
and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several
logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more
information about the classifications used.
The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes"
as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to
people and has many different meanings.
Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass
at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as
they're no longer actively used or maintained.
