RFC v3: provide 3.0.x and 3.1 libc headers

Richard,

Here's v3 of the series, the details are below.

Changes since v2:

- moved more code into the .inc file
- modifed the python code to not import unnecessary functions and to use d.get/setVar.
- Included an optional patch 3/3 to remove 2.6 based header recipes. Whether you want this or not .. is up to you!

Changes since v1:

- factored common code out into the .inc file. Captured in patch 1/2
- patch 2/2 is the introduction of the new headers

v1 Email is included below:

Here's a RFC patch for updating the toolchain linux-libc headers to 3.x variants.

The reason I'm calling it a RFC is:

- I wrote some anonymous python code (and I'm no python coder) to deal with 2.6 / 3.0 tgz location differences. This could have also been done with a variable set in the recipes and used by the .inc. I wasn't sure of the preferred approach, hence the RFC. I'll take no offense corrections here.

- I changed the .inc, but didn't bump the PR of the existing recipes and didn't remove the existing 2.6 variants. If either of these should have been done, let me know and I'll respin.

- I bumped the default to be 3.1. If that's too agressive for the default, and we'd prefer 3.0.8, let me know and I'll respin.

I built and booted all the qemu machines with the 3.1 kernel headers. So from the testing I was able to do, this looks to be safe and ready to go.

This is based on my yocto repo, I also did the changes in my oe-core repository, but I don't have a oe-core contrib branch that I could push to, so I chose to send the yocto variant. If someone points me to who I email for an oe-core contrib branch, I can push that variant as well.

Cheers,

Bruce
