[OE-core] e2fsprogs: Fully remove/disable blkid

We've removed libblkid from e2fsprogs as it was being provided by util-linux. The blkid
binary is also provided there and providing it within e2fsprogs too, linked against
a different and potentially incompatible library we're likely asking for trouble.

It also leads to inconsistencies in the native sysroot since we don't consistently
get one given provider of blkid (but always the liblibid from util-linux).

To clean this up, fully remove/disable the blkid binary and package.
