Scott Garman 29feb44e05 insane.bbclass: add QA tests for unsafe references to exec_prefix

Files under exec_prefix (commonly /usr) may not be available during
system recovery. exec_prefix may also be kept on a separate partition
that is mounted late in the boot process.

This QA test throws an warning if a binary in base_[bindir|sbindir|libdir]
is dynamically linked to a file under exec_prefix. The intention is to
turn this into an error in the near future.

It also checks executable non-binaries (e.g, shell scripts) in the above
base directories with a simple grep test to look for references to
exec_prefix. This test only produces a warning, since false positives
are likely.

This fixes [YOCTO #1008]

README

Poky
====

Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as 
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information 
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a 
reference manual which can be found at:
    http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation

OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.

For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
