This change requires a previous change that was sent up to the list the other
day.  (That change is already in the 'next' tree.):

   rootfs_rpm.bbclass: Reorder feed priority based on multilib image setting

We found a case where the TARGET_OS of a multilib was not the same as other 
multilibs in the set of packages.  This caused the wrong entries to be added
to the /etc/rpm/platforms file, which caused a silent failure during package
installation.  (Smart decided the right packages were selected, while RPM
decided that package was incompatible...  Why this was silently ignored,
I'm not sure.)

We refactor the way we generate and pass the platform information.  This
actually simplifies the code a lot and we can avoid making assumptions based
on whichever multilib the image was generated with.
