[OE-core] [RFC PATCH 0/2] image.bbclass: support two-stage deployment of image artifacts

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski at baylibre.com>

This is a follow-up to the discussion I started on the OE-core mailing
list a couple days ago[1]. These patches propose to split the deployment
of image artifacts into two stages where the first one includes all
"regular" images and takes place before do_image_complete and the second
is mostly aimed at wic right now and happens after do_image_complete.

These patches work but I'm sending them as RFC mostly to continue the
discussion about possible solutions for the circular dependencies between
the rootfs and initramfs.
