cover poky-image-minimal -- disable package tool

When selecting poky-image-minimal, the package database is removed by default. However the packaging software is still installed, but it won't function without the database. So in order to save space remove the package tool from the filesystem image.

Pull URL: git://git.pokylinux.org/poky-contrib.git
Branch: mhatle/image

Thanks,

PATCH 1/1 poky-image-minimal*: Disable packaging tool by default

If the packaging database is removed by default, then there is no reason to install the packaging tool, it just wastes space.
