If the archiver is enabled, its tasks should be in the dependency tree of
whatever you're building so that you don't need to invoke bitbake twice to
produce the required artifacts. For images that's the way the archiver has
always worked, if it's enabled then you just need to do `bitbake image` to
build the image and deploy the source archives. This change just extends that
behaviour to cover other things we can build and ensures that we don't miss
sources for recipes like gcc-source.
