[OE-core] [PATCH] [RFC] kernel: rework kernel and module classes to allow for building out-of-tree modules

NOT FOR INCLUSION
Before we include something like this, it needs review from folks like Koen and
Gary to confirm it works in their environment as well.
The existing infrastructure uses an external build tree which references the
kernel source in the work dir. If run with rm work, building external modules
will fail.
This patch places a configured source tree in sysroots. Striking a balance
between minimal size and minimal maintenance is difficult. This version leans
on the side of caution and removes only the obviously unecessary parts of the
source tree to conserve space.
Care is also taken to clean the hostprogs in scripts, and the modules are
responsible for building them as needed.
