linux-yocto: add bc-native and linux-yocto-dependency

Richard/Saul,

As reported by Martin Jansa, the following error happens when building in a minimal environment:

   |   BC      kernel/timeconst.h
   | /bin/sh: bc: command not found
   | make[3]: *** [kernel/timeconst.h] Error 127
   | make[2]: *** [kernel] Error 2
   | make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

kernel commit 70730bca [kernel: Replace timeconst.pl with a bc script] added a kernel dependency on bc. To support the build of linux-yocto recipes in these configurations, we add bc-native to the common dependencies.

I didn't go so far as to add the dependency to the base kernel bbclass, since not all kernels will be of the right version to trigger this dependency, but we can consider doing that in the future.

I'm not packaging/native tool expert, but I think I added bc-native properly, and it worked here. But obviously, correct me if I'm wrong.

Cheers,

Bruce

To support the building of recent kernels in minimal environments, we should provide bc-native.

I've used the same change for bc yesterday to build it, so:
