v2 cover Rework the devshell

From: Chris Larson <[email protected]>

- Adds a utility metaclass for maintaining class registries
- Shifts the handling of spawning a terminal into a new 'terminal' python module
- Automatically selects an appropriate terminal based on what you have available on your machine
- Still allows manual selection, but in a more convenient way, and falls back to auto if you select an invalid or unavailable (not installed) terminal
- Improves how we spawn screen:

- Shows a warning when spawning it, so do_devshell doesn't appear to hang
- Spawns a named screen session 'devshell', to avoid confusion when the user already has other screen sessions running

PATCH v2 1/3 oe.classutils: add module

From: Chris Larson <[email protected]>

This adds a ClassRegistry utility metaclass, as maintaining a class registry is a fairly common thing to do.

PATCH v2 2/3 Rework how the devshell functions

In reply to Chris Larson

From: Chris Larson <[email protected]>

In the new implementation, each known terminal is defined as a class in oe.terminal, as a subclass of bb.process.Popen. terminal.bbclass wraps this functionality, providing the metadata pieces. It obeys the OE_TERMINAL variable, which is a 'choice' typed variable. This variable may be 'auto', 'none', or any of the names of the defined terminals.

When using 'auto', or requesting an unsupported terminal, we attempt to spawn them in priority order until we get one that's available on this system (and in the case of the X terminals, has DISPLAY defined). The 'none' value is used when we're doing things like automated builds, and want to ensure that no terminal is *ever* spawned, under any circumstances.

Current available terminals:

gnome
konsole
xterm
rxvt
screen

PATCH v2 3/3 oe.terminal: improve how we spawn screen

In reply to Chris Larson

From: Chris Larson <[email protected]>

- Name the screen session 'devshell', to avoid confusion if running bitbake itself under a screen session.
- Display a warning message when spawning screen, so it's clear to the user that screen has been run (otherwise do_devshell just appears to hang).
