[OE-core] DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = -1

[Frans Meulenbroeks]

Dear all,

Triggered by the discussion on oe devel on splitting meta-oe I decided to
do some quick greps on who uses DEFAULT_PREFERENCE in oe-core and meta-oe.

Below are the results.
My questions:
- are recipes with D_P = -1 good enough to enter oe core and/or meta oe.
- is it desirable to have a D_P -1 in an inc file (as happens in
mesa-dri.inc)

Best regards, Frans.

PS: I found the -2 ones especially odd. This seems only useful if there is
someone else already with a -1, which might make the recipe even more
questionable.
