[OE-core] [PATCH] hello-mod: Ensure the produced package name begins with kernel-module-

The special key kernel-module- is necessary for the system to avoid a package
rename when installing a multilib image.  For example:

local.conf: IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " hello-mod"

bitbake lib32-core-image-minimal

The system will translate names and prepend 'lib32-', unless the package
begins with kernel-module-.
