[OE-core] [PATCH] image.bbclass: Allow creation of meta-packages for images

[David Nyström]

No packages were created for core-image-minimal et.c. which
is a known top level interface for Yocto/OE users.

When installing from a repo, it would be good if these interfaces
were common. If not, users are left with
packagegroup-core-*, which names are not always easy to parse.
