[OE-core] [PATCH] classes/machine-overrides-extended.bbclass: add

[Trevor Woerner]

Copy this class from meta-freescale so all BSPs can use it.

This class makes it easy for a BSP to specify multiple sets of configurations
for a given MACHINE. In some cases there are multiple choices for the user.
For example: for the kernel, the user could choose either the vendor kernel or
the upstream kernel. However, sometimes these decisions are "locked" together:
i.e. if you want to use the vendor's binary blob for (say) graphics, then
you have to use their vendor kernel as well. It's not possible for a user to
choose, say, the graphics binary blob but want to use the upstream kernel too.
Therefore the BSP ends up with "sets" of configurations which need to be taken
collectively instead of piecemeal.

In the example of meta-freescale, if the user does nothing special,
they get the vendor options. If they add the following line to their
configuration, they get the upstream pieces:

	MACHINEOVERRIDES .= ":use-mainline-bsp"
