[OE-core] [PATCH] utils.bbclass: ensure $0 is correct in wrapper scripts

Some packages (eg mesa) will invoke a tool with --version and do string matches
on the output (i.e. mesa does $LEX --version |grep "^flex ").  This doesn't work
with the combination of wrapper scripts and binaries that use $0 as they output
"flex.real".

Luckily bash's exec lets you set $0.  As we want to use this we can't use env,
but using export appears to work just as well.
