[OE-core] [PATCH 0/3] port oe-dev ,ubifs.img link support

[Ben Gardiner]

I made some changes in oe-dev to normalize the link names used for the 
ubifs images created when the type is ubifs vs. when the type is UBI. 
The changes we two-fold: make symlinks to either .rootfs.<type> or 
<type>.img and use the <type>.img extension for the ubifs images when 
they are intermediate for UBI image generation as well as the final 
target.

The changes were accepted by Tom Rini for oe-dev and Denys Dmytriyenko 
for arago.

I've only just begun following the oe-core list and I noticed your 
(Richard's) changes to introduce image_type.bbclass to oe-core. When I 
looked closer at the changes I could see that there had been no sync-up 
from oe-dev to oe-core since the changes I mentioned above.

This changeset should align oe-core with those recent changes in oe-dev; 
the changes I made were dependent on Bernhard's change to replace the 
symlink target with 'ln -f' instead of 'rm'ing it first; so I ported his 
commit also.

I'm sorry to say that there has been no testing of these changes with 
oe-core. I would be interested in trying a test build... but I must admit
I don't know what MACHINE+DISTRO+image to try as a simple test build.
