[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] cooker.py: new multiconfig '*' syntax support

[Juro Bystricky]

Currently you cannot build a target for all the configured multiconfigs without
specifying a list. The list can be quite long, requiring to type several lines
of text.

This enhancement is to support globbing so that you can do this,
e.g. instead of:

    $ bitbake multiconfig:A:bash multiconfig:B:bash bash

you can do:

    $ bitbake multiconfig:*:bash

There are real world use cases where it is desirable to use multiconfig with
two different tasks. For example:  SDKs with multiple toolchains but also
containing set of additional host tools, or multiconfig builds requiring one image for
the  main CPU(s) and a different co-image for a companion CPU.
For this reason, two variations of the new syntax are supported.

For example, the following:

    $ bitbake multiconfig:*:meta-toolhchain

would expand to:

    $ bitbake multiconfig:A:meta-toolchain multiconfig:B:meta-toolchain meta-toolchain

However the following:

    $ bitbake multiconfig:*:meta-toolhchain hosttools

would expand to:

    $ bitbake multiconfig:A:meta-toolchain multiconfig:B:meta-toolchain hosttools

In other words, if the user specified the "default" task explicitly, it replaces the implicit
"default" task.
