Add generic recipe for ELL.

This doesn't answer the question of "why?".

I think, gdbus APIs will be replaced soon with ell APIs, I was the early adopter of ell APIs in OMA DM IMEI Sync (ODIS) Implementation. When I was implementing ODIS, there was license issue since gdbus uses GPL v2. I took help maintainer and they suggested ell. I remember they were mentioned that soon gdbus API will changes to ell in other components e.g. ofono, bluez, etc.
I dont know thier exect timelines.

In that case ell can be considered for oe-core when a dependency of it needs it - until then feel free to submit it to meta-oe or similar.
