Bruce Ashfield 921e67bc82 linux-yocto: streamline support for multiple upstream repo types

In order to support repositories of various types (with or without
meta data, branched, pristine, custom, etc) information about the
type of processing that is required was passed to the processing
phases via variables.

The combination of variables involved in coordinating the processing
creates a learning curve and overly complicates recipe extensions.

With minor tweaks to the kern-tools, adding flexibility and keying
off the existence of the meta branch it is possible to remove all
of the variables that were added to support different repository
types.

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:
