[OE-core] [PATCH] kernel.bbclass: Fix symlink creation when using externalsrc

[Stefan Stanacar]

do_unpack is by default in SRCTREECOVEREDTASKS so this append can't run, since
this tasks gets removed by externalsrc when it's enabled.

However this was hidden because externalsrc does run do_fetch and do_unpack if
there are type=kmeta or file:// entries in the SRC_URI value of the kernel recipe.
(e.g linux-yocto).

Make this a separate task so that it actually gets run for kernel recipes with
no file:// or type=kmeta in SRC_URI.
