Layername override implications
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Code can now know which layer a recipe is coming from through the newly added
:term:`FILE_LAYERNAME` variable and the ``layer-<layername> override``. This is being used
for enabling QA checks on a per layer basis. For existing code this has the
side effect that the QA checks will apply to things being bbappended to recipes
from other layers. Those other layers would need to have patch upstream status
entries for patches being bbappended for example.
