[OE-core] [PATCH] insane.bbclass: Fix RPATH warning in the face of funny path strings

[Andy Ross]

In toolchain edge cases it's possible for the RPATH of a library to be
set to something like "/usr/lib/../lib".  This should be detected as
"/usr/lib" and generate a warning.  Also clarify the warning text to
indicate potential link-time pollution from the host libraries.
