Bruce Ashfield a5b568eb37 kernel: save $kerndir/tools and $kerndir/lib from pruning

The kernel source tree in the sysroot has all unecessary source
code removed. The existing use case is to support module building
out of the sysroot, but as more toolsa are moved into the kernel
tree itself there are new use cases for the kernel sysroot source.

To avoid putting dependencies on the kernel, and to be able to
individually build and package these tools out of the source tree,
we can save $kerndir/tools and $kernddir/lib from being removed.
This enables tools like perf to be built our of the kernel source
in the sysroot, without significantly increasing the amount of
source in the sysroot.

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/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:
