When a BSP or layer specifies an AUTOREV for SRCREV, the logic
that matches expected vs real branch heads doesn't apply. We
always want the latest.
To solve the issues with invalid git revs causing validation
failures, we detect the AUTOINC value and do a early return,
skipping validation.

Fixes bug: [YOCTO #955]
Updating the SRCREV to pickup the kern-tools change:
[
updateme: error if features are not found
Rather than silently dropping addon features, we emit a warning
and then exit with a failure code. The caller can then abort a
build and not simply miss features.
Passing --no-strict to the script disables this new functionality
if for some reason a feature description is missing on purpose.

There are valid reasons to build repositories without meta
data present and there are times when this is an error. This
change adds sanity tests to the build process to detect missing
meta data and throw an informative error message.
Sanity checking is only triggered from recipes (linux-yocto)
that always require meta data to be present. Other recipes
are not impacted and can auto-generate meta data as required.
Without this change the build process suceeds, but incorrect
meta data will be used (with no user knowledge), which is not
the desired behaviour.

The BSP bootstrap and -dev use cases can be applied against
unbranched or repos without meta data. To allow the proper
and safe processing of those repositories, slight modifications
to the tools are required to pass the branch on the command
line (rather than detecting it always) and to only checkout
branches that exist.

To support quick uprev and testing, it is desireable to build
repositories that do not have embedded meta data. In this scenario
the meta data can be automatically created or provided externally.
This commit supports the first situation by detecting the lack
of meta data and then automatically creating a base set of meta
files.

As the first of several changes to the kern-tools coupled to
the branch management in the yocto kernels the repository
is being renamed to it proper name. This change switches us to
that newly created repo.

By default the linux-yocto recipes operate on the current branch
and use it as a trigger to locate the description of a board. This
model works well when using the git repo outside of a build system
since the commands can be simply invoked and will do something
useful. However, it does mean that you can't have two BSPs that
differ only by configuration, building out of a single branch
in the repository.
This means that you must have many branches for very similar
BSPs. This model is still preferred, but having the choice of
branching strategies is better.
With this change we can have multiple BSPs using a single branch
with the preferred description being hinted from the build
system by passing the $machine value to updateme/configme.

Fixes [BUGID: #390]
The custom de-checkpoint routines used in createme/patchme
destroyed data each run. This meant that incremental and
expermental work couldn't be done directly in the kernel source
tree itself. Using the more robust kgit-checkpoint allows that
data to be persistent (until a clean is done).

Even if we aren't creating the branch from scratch, it is possible
that it has never been patched before. So let's make sure the
infrastructure for patching is always in place.

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.
